Started to move off Google’s services to proton:

I could but it’s pretty simple. You’re the owner of that domain. Any accounts/communications with that domain can be traced back to you.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
As opposed to an email address that can be traced back to you?
And who and why are we talking about anyway? Who’s tracking you if you have a domain?

That’s what aliases are for.
Who’s tracking you if you have a domain?
About a thousand different companies and a few dozen governments.
If you’re giving those companies personal info (name, phone, address, CC) they can track you regardless of what emails you use with each of them.
And if you’re not giving them personal info I don’t see how that works. Yeah so I register on both random site A and random site B with aliases @tfyuhegddssgvd.com, so what? How are they going to find out about each other? What will they tell each other even if they did? And why risk a GDPR violation for such silly reasons?

Good thing I’m not doing that.

…how what works, exactly?

You ever look at the Privacy Policy on any website ever? They all sell your information to data brokers.
And why risk a GDPR violation for such silly reasons?
It’s not a GDPR violation. And even if it was, that only applies inside the EU.
