If you’re talking about a SimpleLogin, you CAN email from it. I forget the exact terminology (I can check if you need) but you can generate a forward address that you email and the receiver (Spotify) will see it as If you have emailed from your forwarding address.

This could have just as easily been on the dadjokes community.

Awesome, thanks! That’s really helpful.

Makes sense, thanks.

Having a homelab myself and running quite a few services I’m still so iffy on allowing anything out on the wider web in such a public way.

Yeah, this would be the first that would be so openly accessible (I do host other things but they are severely locked down). That’s why, if I do it, I’ll create another VLAN, with zero access to my network/other VLANs.

That’s why I was asking about disk space, as I wouldn’t connect it to my NAS. If I do it, I’ll probably do it on dedicated hardware with it’s own drive.

Ah ok, that makes sense. Thanks, appreciate it.

This is exactly the reason neither of my kids have a single picture online (to my knowledge).

It’s not up to me. When they are old enough, they can decide. Until then, I’ll do damn hardest to keep it away.

No worries! It was just an instance of Lemmy (same way that lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are different instances).

Rather than rely on someone else, I am thinking of just spinning up my own as I already have a home lab / know how to look after stuff etc etc

I assume this one? https://lemmy.ml/post/1855875

Edit: it’s mostly people assuming they lost the domain. I’ve seen nothing confirmed yet.
