12/21. It was highly entertaining though.
Average :/
Me too.
I scored 11/21 on https://e-mail.wtf/ and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.

Going to have to try some of those.... Can you actually register emojis as a domain, or is that just the email validation that allows them?
Edit: most TLDs don't. Smaller ones do sometimes.
Emoji domains can be registered using punycode, and you're right that it's up to the TLD whether they're allowed or not.
For example: http://xn--yt8h.la/%F0%9F%90%B6
📙.la is encoded using punycode to http://xn--yt8h.la/
🐶 is URL-encoded to %F0%9F%90%B6
Giving the 'true' URL http://xn--yt8h.la/%F0%9F%90%B6 which then redirects to https://emojipedia.org/dog-face
Emails should generally use @xn--yt8h.la instead of @📙.la for maximum compatibility. I'm not sure if the email spec allows punycode.
I got 13/21. I mean thats not bad 😄
Jesus effin Christ! I had no idea! This is madness! This is ... Omfg I just can't
If qoutes are removed and internal spaces are invalid, how could ":(){␣:|:&␣};:"@example.com be valid?
