A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yeah, exactly! You also brought up something that I probably should have mentioned too
it's not uncommon that your domain registrar or hosting provider includes e-mail or offers it cheaply too.
Having the domain seems pretty critical to me and gives you a huge amount of flexibility
even if you just plan to stick with gmail, it gives you the option to migrate to something else in the future relatively painlessly. Your e-mail is your primary online ID, and not having control of it is actually kind of scary!
