That’s extra work, throwaway services are often blocked
Never had any issues whatsoever, it is less work to me than logging into my mail account and confirming my account, but I also like to have a separate account for every service and never use the “login with facebook/whatever else” option.
it also defeats the purpose of having a backup contact in case of loss passwords etc.
