I'm looking for email providers that don't require a phone number to use with reddit

I’m not ready to drop reddit entirely and to create accounts there I need an email address. I don’t want to disclose my phone number or any other personal information.

I tried i2p, but for whatever reason, mail from reddit doesn’t get its way to the inbox.

What other providers could I use?

10min mail

My guy, reddit doesn’t even care if your email is valid. Just use some keyboard spam like [email protected], it will accept it

Try Firefox relay. It can set you up with a randomly generated email address that will forward to your regular email.

The last time I used the registry process, Outlook didn’t.

I have heard of proton mail but haven’t tried it

I love it so much. My inbox has been entirely free of spam, and I love the simple design.

Skiff is another good option.

You can also just create an email alias for free with simple login (now run by proton, ie. Proton mail)

Doesn't Firefox now include an email spoofer by default?

It keeps popping up to ask me on singup screens, and the one time I tried it seems to just provide a valid email and a forwarding service for TFA. I don't know if it'll work with Reddit or how effective the service is, though.

I use m.kuku.lu, but if you plan to have more permanent account on there, like me, there’s one problem it has. It NEVER invalidates old cookie tokens, even after a password change. This means if you get compromised or forget to logout on someone else’s computer, there’s nothing you can do about it.

Edit: Forget it, they recently added “Log out on all devices” button.

Edit 2: At the bottom of aquapal.net it also says they use solar power, if you care about that.

tutanota didn’t require a phone number, last I checked

Create your account through old.reddit.com; when it asks you for an email, simply press “next”. And, if you need an e-mail provider for some other reason, protonmail.com doesn’t ask you for your phone number.

That said do you really need a reddit account?
