Comment on In search for free domain I got one but some questions
Kuinox@lemmy.world 5 months agoI don’t know, maybe ?
But I recommand strongly to have your own domain name.
As long as you do nothing illegal, when you own a domain name, you have legal recourse to keep it. It’s not the case for an email provider like gmail, which can ban you for no reason tomorrow, and you have no recourse to get back your email.

That’s a conversation you need to have with your parents.

It’s a few euro per year, plus you can mutualize the cost with your family, take a domain name with your last name, this will allow your whole family to have firstname@lastname.yourcountrytld.
I just looked for my lastname, it’s around $10 per year.
I’ll repeat this again, but it means you will own this domain name, you have legal ressources and big companies won’t be able to take your mail address from you.
Else, use duckdns if you really don’t want to pay anything.

You just made a mistake into saying what domain name you will take, someone may buy it before you in order to extort money from you.
It probably won’t happen but…
