My primary email domain is a .me. Never have problems with web forms. It can be more difficult to communicate verbally, so when saying it to non-technical folks I preface it with “my email is a bit weird” and then spell it out slowly. Young people seem to get it more easily.

I also have an email on a .email domain, I have seen it occasionally get rejected by web forms. .party would likely have similar issues.

Together with a catch all email user part, it's a fun way to find out which companies offer employee discount. "My email is foo@my-domain", "oh, are you a Foo employee?"

More often than not folks look at me gone out rather than asking if I’m an employee.
