Reading the Twitter thread, what's the current best security practices for email addresses? Because I thought getting your own domain was the better thing to do but it seemed in this case using a Gmail address would have been better?

If you want your domain to be safe from compromise via social engineering of the registrar, then use a registrar with a strong security policy. GoDaddy is a mass market registrar with tens of millions of customers for whom security is not their top concern.

Cloudflare offers a security-oriented registrar service that is also extremely affordable. I would recommend using them.
