I'm looking for email providers that don't require a phone number to use with reddit (linux.community)

I'm not ready to drop reddit entirely and to create accounts there I need an email address. I don't want to disclose my phone number or any other personal information.

I tried i2p, but for whatever reason, mail from reddit doesn't get its way to the inbox.

What other providers could I use?

Its been a few years since I checked, but Reddit traditionally has not required an email. You can just leave the field blank and click next and it'll let you create an account anyway. The UX is a dark pattern.

Last I heard, the rules were more strict on the redesign -- but old Reddit still let you sign up without email

That changed some time ago. Around the death of i.reddit iirc
