I have more than 10 emails, I need your help
(Disclaimer: this post have been translated from Spanish, sorry if there’s any mistake im learning English)
Hello people, I am a person who has hundreds if not thousands of accounts and I need your help.
I recently started researching cybersecurity and I'm starting to do my "setup" (password manager, 2fa etc)
As mentioned in the title, I have more than 10 emails since I have one for each thing, one for video games, another for personal things, social networks etc. since I don't feel comfortable for example giving epic games the email I use for my bank
I'm thinking of unifying everything in a single email using the SimpleLogin service, but I have some questions: What happens if the service closes? What happens if someone "hacks" an alias? How did you avoid losing an alias?
I would really appreciate your opinions and advice, also if you have alternatives that are completely free please.
Also i dont feel safe using a lot of services because what happens if for example proton closes? I wanna hear you advice, thanks.

Hey, thank you so much for your help.
i cant Pay anything to be honest, I need everything free.
Im planning to use SimpleLogin as an alias provider, I can have like a master gmail account where alias email converge or what do you recommend? Sorry if there’s any mistake, im learning English.
Yeah, Im planning to have a proton mail to log in only in SL and bitwarden and then “forget” it, I don’t want proton mail as a master mail for my aliases because it only have 500mb of mail storage so Itll be full very fast, also, proton pass allow unlimited entries free? iirc it only allowed 100 like 6 months ago, ive reseseching since then and building my “roadmap” to be safe online.
So it looks something like this
Proton mail
Password manager, Authenticator and simple login
gmail
Every alias converge here
Same as bitwarden, I’ll consider using proton instead of bitwarden, thank you so much.
Also, how I can reply if I need to reply something that was send to the aliases? I don’t wanna share my master gmail, itll be literally my key to the internet 😆.
oh, it’s ok.
alright
Yeah I just need like 5, I’ll just organize my accounts per categories
Thank you so much for you help.
Im afraid of losing my master gmail where the alias comverge but I’ll see how I can keep it secure
Thank you so much
From the app (or web) or from my gmail I just press reply?
alright
Just press reply and the alias will reply for me i guess.
I’ll test, thank you so much again.
I’ll be unhackable thanks :salute:
One last question (and sorry) what means premium domain
oh i cant change my mailbox, I need to use my proton acc as the master one, that sucks:/
Nvm I can
But idk how to verify them
Nvm I verified it
One las question and sorry for disturbing, how I can secure my main proton acc? Im using proton Authenticator so if I lose it it’s over and I can’t enter to my Authenticator
Or should I put a recovery cellphone number
