I also reached out to them on Twitter but they directed me to this form. I followed up with them on Twitter with what happened in this screenshot but they are now ignoring me.

Doesn't surprise me one bit. I've noticed that a lot of websites will only accept
.comand a few will only accept email addresses from popular providers (Gmail, Hotmail, outlook, etc.)My guess is that it's trying to reduce spam and fake account generation.
Thus preventing the growth of any small providers and further entrenching Microsoft, Google, Apple, and a handful of others as the only "viable" options.
Feels very relevant to the fediverse, with how people tend to compare it to email.
Yeah, that's it pretty much.Like 99% of your legitimate users are going to be standard gmail/yahoo/hotmail/etc. You see a user from ten minute mail, it's probably some shady shit.
Not necessarily shady.
I use 10 minute email if a merchant requires me enter an email account before seeing the total price on an item (including shipping). That's the most common pattern I've seen. My guess is that they want to ping you to complete the purchase.
Or a website might require free registration in order to view the content.
One place I use 10-minute email is actually Spotify. I didn't want to give them my Gmail address since your name is exposed to the world via their sharing API.
Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of bad uses for it as well. But privacy minded people use it too.
ELI5 the bit about spotify's sharing API?
When you share your playlist or have Spotify hooked up to some other service like discord, it shows the name associated with the account.
And changing that name is not as straight forward as you might think.
Given the fact that it's shared so easily, I wouldn't be surprised if email addresses could be exposed with the right options.
