Also as the registrant of one of those new fancy TLDs, much like the owner of this website (email.wtf), their own email addresses will fail those stupid email validation checks that only believe in example@example.[com|net|org]

Shitty websites will fail "example@email.wtf", guaranteed - despite it being 100% valid AND potentially live.

Source - I have a ".family" domain for my email server. Totally functional, but some shitty websites refuse to believe it.

I have a spam collecting address @freemail.hu , the domain is live and working since 96, sometimes it's not accepted, because it's not Gmail I guess

Same as I have a .party domain. So I made a place holder (looking at you progressive) email ___+haslazydevs@gmail.com

Yeah I have a .engineering for my biz. I also registered mycompanyengineering.com to get through places that won’t take the new TLDs.

Usually banks.
