Feature Request: Support for other Masked Email providers

I would guess that there's probably a decent overlap of 1Password and ProtonMail customers. This year ProtonMail acquired https://simplelogin.io for masked email creation (https://simplelogin.io/blog/simplelogin-join-proton/) and I'm wondering how it could be made available in the same way as

Masked Email - Keep your real email address private. Automatically create new, random email addresses you can use when signing up to services online. Any emails from those services get sent right to your primary inbox. If you start receiving spam, you can block that address with a single click.

I fully support @lumpycustard 's suggestion to integrate with Addy (AnonAddy) and SimpleLogin. Even though I'm a big fan of 1Password, Proton seems like an exciting option to explore.

+1 for this! I already using Addy. But I would recommend that 1password should create its own solution, I don't want to depend on a third party and worry that the service will stop then what will happen to my emails, and as a result, the possibility of using my own domain is essential to ensure more independence.

1Password has been my trusted companion for 15+ years, from Windows to mac, from manual syncing, to dropbox, to native syncing, from desktop to mobile, from licenses to subscription - I've been a loyal and happy user throughout the journey.

When the Fastmail integration came out (3 years ago), I didn't earn much and couldn't afford it, but assumed that more services would roll out and 1Password would obviously integrate with them too. For whatever reason, many great services have been developed, but 1Password has remained stagnant. I could afford Fastmail now, but why should that still be the only option?

When taking a step back and looking at the rest of the market and going back to 1Password's original USP (freeing the user to remember just one password, and usefully generating unique passwords for each service) it seems astonishing that the same functionality for email addresses isn't deemed a priority at 1P.

Looking at price, functionality, and the direction of the apps (electron on desktop feels like a regression), I no longer understand 1Password's USP, differntiation, nor a reason to stay.

I've happily paid for years and feel it's pretty insulting to only get back that "this has been passed on to the team". I've already been prompted to look elsewhere and won't be staying, but I thought it important to make you aware that happy, long-term customers aren't just going to stay around forever, especially if things aren't moving forward and they're paying an increasing on-going subscription with no real signs of progression.

P.S. Just to head off something: Passkeys are cool and all, but what percentage of websites currently support them? If I want to retain my privacy right now on the vast majority of websites, passkey support isn't helpful or relevant.

1Password evidently understands the benefits of masked email (given the Fastmail integration), but it's bizarre that Fastmail has a monopoly as the only supported provider. This isn't the case with the rest of the market and the messaging I've read here isn't transparent and comes across as user hostile, or at the very least avoidant.
