For about 9 years or so, I've used the .CC TLD for my personal/family's email without any technical issues...though it is important to know that throughout the entire time, I've used G Suite as my email provider (used to be called google apps for your domain, etc.). So, one could speculate that perhaps my lack of technical issues was less due to the TLD that i used, and maybe because google considers my domain name "not spammy". HOWEVER, an annoying problem that I've had over the years - and while it has diminished slightly still persists - is that people (or at least people here in the U.S.) are not used to hearing domain names that don't end in the usual .COM, .ORG, .NET...so I ALWAYS have to clarify and explain that my email ends in .CC and not .COM, etc. i find myself still doing this even today - almost a decade later - with so many lay people "being online". I sort of expect that more often with lay people more explanation is needed, but you'd be surprised how many technical people also are not as used to hearing domain names that don't end in the usual top 3. I like the .CC TLD, I really do...but having lived these last 9 or so years with having to constantly explain to people (with whom I plan to correspond with) that there are soooooo many other TLDs out there (beyond just .COM, .ORG, .NET) does get really tiring. If I had to do this all over again, I would have gone with .NET or .ORG (the .COM back then was already taken for my domain name). Oh well.
