I have my name .xyz and I’ve mostly given up using it for email, because I am sick of:

* “Do you mean ‘biz’” on web forms

* other forms just refusing to validate unless I disable the client-side validation

* other systems ostensibly accepting it and just never sending me anything, because it fails to validate silently in their backend

* having to put whatever I am trying to get done on hold for a few minutes when I need to read it to a human, because they’ve “never heard that one before”
