What I like about Proton Pass is the aliases for your email, they are one of the neatest features I have seen in the last time, even firefox now has that feature

What is this? What's an alias for email?

[-] franzcoz@feddit.cl 2 points 3 months ago

it's an email generated by a service like Firefox Relay, Proton Pass or Simple Login, etc, connected to your email (only on the receiving part) used as a way to hide and protect your actual email from spam when registering to anything. That way, this alias email redirects incoming mail to your real email, and when you receive spam, or something you don't want in your Inbox, you just deactivate that alias.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
