I have always had a mailto: link on my personal website. The bad old days of spam were pretty bad, but in the last like, I don't know, 10 years maybe I have gotten probably 1 email per week or less that gets through to my inbox. My university email even is on my public profile page at the university website, easily findable and for the whole world to see, and that has only ever gotten like a handful of spam emails that get through quarantine, and otherwise I only have to approve/delete quarantined emails like once every 2 months.
The problem with having obfuscation/image/whatever is that it becomes annoying or even burdensome to try to get your email address into my email client. I'd rather just copy/paste some text or click a mailto: really.
To each their own of course, but I do wonder how many people take more extreme measures now because they were badly burned (as was I, believe me) in the old days before stricter auth methods and better filters and such.
What do you use for spam filtering (or do you outsource it to Google)? My spam filters have gotten leakier of late, but I haven't gotten around to fiddling with them again.
