Email masking services that still work for registering on websites (piefed.social)

I've using Mozilla Relay to generate one new email address for every website that I have to register. Lately it seems tho that the big/medium sites are rejecting any email from mozmail.com, some even say "temporary email services are not allowed".

Is this just with the service from Mozilla or is it becoming general practice? Is there any service that is still flying under the radar?

SimpleLogin has been working for me

Thinking about switching to Addy.io tho

Edit: except for github. I haven't found anything that worked to sign up for github.

Github is just going down the drain in every other way too. Start migrating what you can elsewhere.
