I got started with aliases on anonaddy (now just Addy). After using a while I jumped into using my own domain, this is the real game changer.
Aliases are great and do their thing, but owning your own domain let's you move everything all at once if you need to.
For instance, when proton added aliases I tried it out. I just redirected my MX records and was done. I didn't like how they handled the header data because it broke a majority of my filters, so I switched back. Again, a simple setting adjustment and done.
For the record, I'll probably switch everything over to proton eventually, but at the time didn't want to recreate my filters. It makes sense to have all email controls under your email provider.
