AnonAddy VS Firefox Relay

AnonAddy - Open-source anonymous email forwarding, create unlimited email aliases for free. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

My only complaint: 90% of the emails coming from AnonAddy, which is the alias service I use for all of my accounts, end up in the spam folder. Source: 10 months ago

Anonaddy, basically the exact same product made by different people, can also be selfhosted. https://anonaddy.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

AnonAddy offers a similar product and they're open source, just read their Blend Into The Crowd section. Source: 11 months ago

I use anonaddy [0] because it's open source and self-hostable [1]. I don't have to worry about the service going under or jumping the shark, since I can always just self-host it on my own hardware and import my config should that happen. Of course I'd much prefer to pay someone else to run it, especially in the case of mail servers where self-hosting is notoriously tedious.

Firefox Relay is a handy assistant to at least stymie email tracking and is neatly integrated with the browser. The free tier gets you a few masked emails that forward to your actual inbox.

> In a sense, it sounds like the advice of the services is less subscribing to them than trying not to have a few e-mails that map to your personal identity. Firefox Relay is a great way to do that :) https://relay.firefox.com Integrating that with Monitor is pretty high on at least my personal wish list. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

> In what ways has mozilla meaningfully dared to try and expand their revenue streams? I think that Mozilla VPN is pretty nice. It's based on Mullvad VPN, so they seem to know their audience (given that Mullvad has a pretty okay reputation among many tech savvy or privacy conscious folks, a lot of which probably use something like Firefox as well): https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/ I guess there's also... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

I've been dragging around a similar concern. My solution might be to use Mozilla's Relay for the email and Privacy.com for the credit card. https://relay.firefox.com/ https://privacy.com/ That won't stop the data collection but it should mitigate how useful it is. Maybe? - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
