Obviously, ProtonMail shouldn't be on here, but is this a list anyone even uses?

Looks like it has 2 stars.... So I'm going to say no

(Just from preview, didn't follow link)

It's a list of places you can get free, disposable email addresses. Protonmail fits here. Now, why anybody would use this list for mail filtering is a whole different question. They'd be blocking some huge email providers.

Isn't every email address disposable?

[–] misophist@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Yes, but some are more difficult to get. Personal domains cost money. Edu, gov, and most business emails are harder to get.
