I had the same issue with my Anonaddy alias, I just made an alias using my domain name and works fine now. It's unfortunate that so many project are on shithub.

Fuck Microsoft for buying GitHub. As expected they have made good into garbage.
GitHub was proprietary, venture-capital, Ruby sludge before Microsoft. They’d either way aim to be bought or be the next Microsoft.
Yeah all the email addresses on my domain name are just aliases. Dont tell github
I gave them an generic "alias" through a more mainstream service than silomails, we'll see if that pacifies them.
Same experience here
GitHub is owned by Microsoft and Microsoft also hates email aliases. May I recommend Port87. Microsoft and GitHub both accept the tagged addresses you use with Port87.
Looking at this Web page I end up on a wait list... Is there more somewhere?
I’ll send you an invite right now. The waitlist is temporary, but necessary right now. I need to know metrics for autoscaling capacity.
Thanks that's very nice of you! Let me know if I have to DM you my email or something else! I see that you're behind that project, nice to have you there
If you were on the waitlist, I’ve sent you an invite. :)
Thanks, I wasn't because I weren't sure on the best way to go, but I just joined now. Feel free to approve when you have time! Cheers
You should have an invite now. :)
Million thanks mate! I can confirm this! Cheers!
fuck github. use a different git site, there are plenty!
Github is unfortunately the premier platform for collaborating with others to build FOSS. Until alternative forges support federation, any other forge is usually a dead end.
Huh, federated Git sounds nice.
Federated Git has been a thing ever since git was conceived:
git send-emailThey mean like I want to be able to open an issue on your instance using an account on my instance. Forjero is working in this
The mailing list or maintainer email can accept your issues. You don’t have to have a code forge.
Theres a reason people do.
Sure. I love being able to browse code without checking out your bloated monorepo, but it isn’t a requirement.
I mean more about the features that forges provide, not just a WUI for browsing code. Namely: tracking hundreds of issues, PRs, etc

What do you mean by email aliases?
Basically another email address that forwards everything to your main email.
So a redirect instead of alias? E-mail alias is the address+alias@... thing.
Yeah let's say you got joe@protonmail.com, on simplelogin you can make a joe123@aleeas.com and now sign up for services using aleeas with those emails being forwarded to your protonmail
Here's an illustration

I use simplelogin on github. Works fine
Mines ok. But then I use my own domain.
