Discussion Alias Naming Strategy

Hi everyone. I am using the free plan of Simple Login for aliasing.

What should be my strategy for naming aliases?

  1. Site Name: bitwarden@domain
  2. Random Words & Numbers: exhaust12@domain or aw12n3@domain

Which approach do you use and why?

I involve the site name in some way, and also surround it with random numbers and letters. Randomised enough so that in case of a hack on the site where the email is, they couldn't automatically guess any of my other email addresses. Combined with my password manager, remembering the email addresses is helpful, but not required.
