Self-Hosted Alternatives to Popular Services

I have a few domains I've accumulated over the years, and I've been consolidating some of them in an attempt to reduce the renewal costs. My question is about the cheap 1.111B .xyz domains you can get for $1. I am trying to move to one of these domains due to the low cost, but I also use my domains for SimpleLogin. I've seen in comments before that others mentioned numerical domains are often automatically filtered as spam. Does anyone have any experience with this and can confirm one way or the other whether a numerical domain is often filtered automatically by spam filters? Thanks!
