Github dislikes email “aliases” so much that they will shadow ban your otherwise normal activities for months, and once flagged, support will request not only a “valid” email domain but also that you remove the “alias” email from the account completely.

Same reasons used by #iphone, #mac, #microsoft, #facebook, #twitter, #reddit, etc. users.
