Hi, I’m Sparrow22. I don’t want to be tracked 100% of the time. I want to be free to call it as I see it and to assemble my own truths about the world today. I’m happy to have an account here and an inbox based simply on my story. If anyone can suggest an email provider or help me out with an invite, it would be much appreciated. I won’t spam or incite violence or anything with my email account.

The title is linked to my blog which was thankfully free to setup, even if the host does seem to mostly have spam otherwise.

-S

Edit: I now have an XMPP account, DM me for it.

Edit2: Still no luck on an email address. It seems bots have poisoned the well. Some services say to reach out for an invite but you have to reach out via email! Will have to look for a lemmy presence for one of these things.

IIRC ProtonMail doesn’t need a phone number or recovery email to open an account. Might be what you need

Protonmail needs your IP. If you want to open an account via tor or (proton)vpn (i haven’t checked others), then you still need to provide another mail or phone number

This isn’t what happened for me. They wanted an email confirmation so it’s rather chicken and egg. Maybe tutanota will work as an initial provider then i can get a protonmail. It seems these services have their ideas about which are acceptable for what.
