True. I try to keep my work mail away as much as possible from any website if it can be avoided. When I use a third-party app that I would do in my web dev job, I usually try to use a dummy account and would use random characters for the name since Gmail really requires them anyway. Kinda makes it hard though when you are required to connect your work email, lol.
I lost track of all my emails that I used back in 2015, but good thing it never involved any of my personal information.
Personally, I hardly sign up to anything these days. Kind of sick of every website requiring you to give your data over by signing up.
Kind of annoying as well when they're letting you use their web app but then they would require you to sign up to get your output.
