1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Gmail account is firstname.lastname and neither of them are rare.
Even though I don't use Gmail anymore I keep that account alive.
Fun tip, dots in a Gmail address are ignored, so you can also use firstnamelastname, first.name.lastna.me, or any other combo to receive mail at
Fun fact:
Not all services that use "sign in with google" will respect that, though most will
Backblaze immediately comes to mind as one that always makes me include the dot or it gets pissy
Yeah that's signing in, so your username must match. There are reasons why you should not use sign in with Google, mostly to do with security and privacy. In which case you can sign up for an account using as many or as few dots as you like.
For just receiving mail this works universally.
If someone has the email account password your security is already fucked. If they don't then there's no way to pop your oauth unless the client is shit. If the client is shit you shouldn't give it your credentials.
SSO is not a security vuln.
