I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

I recently started using a + in my email address to make use-specific aliases, so I can more easily filter content from them or see if they're leaking my email.

I signed up for a rewards program in person the other day and the strange look I got:

Do you have an account with us?

Idk

I can look up your email

Ok, it's foo@bar.com

I don't see it, would you like to make an account?

Yes, but instead of that email, make it foo+yourcompany@bar.com

Uhhhhh.... Ok....

Like "you don't have an account but you have an email specifically for our business? Sus AF"

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
