Just a warning that owning your domain means also owning the security of the domain.

If you lose access to eg gmail or they ban you, nobody you care about will access your email.

If your domain gets hijacked or you fail to renew, now a bad actor could receive all your email forever.

(I use my own domain for email)

Can confirm about the security issues. After having a domain not secured enough being hijacked by wordpress exploit and then flooded by porn and blacklisted by Google and Facebook - happilly I didn't have email on it - I definitely got rid of the idea of having my @owndomain mail adress.

Fastmail is my main provider for email. Sorry for misunderstanding. I never ran my own email server, but had a personal website on this domain (RIP).
