Shameless plug - I created a chrome extension that allows to create unique email addresses that forward to your real inbox. It uses Cloudflare email routing, simplifies creating/labeling of new addresses and keeping track of them. Always 1 click away. The addresses are pre-allocated and recycled when deleted so creating a new one is faster that with Apple's hide my mail. https://github.com/webmonch/hide-my-mail-cloudflare https://github.com/webmonch/hide-my-mail-cloudflare

Doesn't owning the domain kind of defeat the point?

  Not really, at least if you register the domain anonymously. You get unlimited emails, and I assign one to each website or registration.

With cloudflare you can also just setup catch-all and be done wirh it. I personally doing catch-all already, but problem is that using your own domain for website registration basically gives everyone unique id to eaaily connect all the information that ever been leaked for your accounts and something always gets leaked. Not a very good idea for privacy.

  The biggest upside for me of having separate labelled mailboxes is I can use one, delete it later and never receive mail from it again.

    My email addresses been public for years and spam was never a big issue. But yeah it mostly opposite problem I would say - spam filters eat usefull stuff sometimes. Just today I found one more job related email in spam, but its from public mailbox damn. Privacy is kind a bigger issue and having aliases on icloud is just much more convinient than having 10 accounts.

    with something like cloudflare forwarding you can black-hole an address if it becomes a problem

  Spammers aren't going to make that connection. Your custom domain will be like any other corporate entity as far as their scripts are concerned.

Pretty good way to harvest magic links and email codes!
