Anybody else still remember their first e-mail address? What domain did it have?

I picked mine from this Latin American web portal "StarMedia" which apparently still exists? I thought it sounded cool 😅 At least compared to the alternatives. I was NOT going to have something ending in bloody "Hotmail" or worse, "Yahoo."

Back then I used the screen name "Artemis" thinking it sounded like the male version of the Greek hunter goddess (we call her "Artemisa") not knowing it was also female. 🤭

My first email address was with on yahoo.com and I still use it today as my primary email

Although, I have recently created a new email using something like my real name so that I don't have to deal with comments when telling someone my email in public
