Buy the defunct domain and setup an inbox?
I actually tried this!
The site is now owned by Google and auto-redirects to my Google inbox (I’m required to use a Google account to sign in).
Oh so it kind of sounds like it worked? Were you able to add the alias?
It absolutely did not work in any way.
I’m able to sign in on the account using my gaming platform ID but still can’t change anything on the account without verifying via email.
That email? Dead dead.
So Google ate the domain and now you cant use it to make a gmail alias? Why did Google take the domain? So close yet so infinitely far
