Knock on wood, I have not used them in quite a while.

      Cloudflare is just that. It supports most domains except for premium .dev (for now) from google. Registrar costs are at cost and no markup. Lots of options, no pressure to do anything beyond free.

      Next option is Namecheap, but they’ve had issues lately.

          Had some guy from one of their shell companies tell me a domain no one would ever spend five figures on was being sold for $55k. GoDaddy sucks massively.

          I followed that link, and the post itself seems to not be that, no one in comments was pointing to anything that was a smoking gun on that, and someone else linked to the CEO directly saying that, no, absolutely not, it’d be bad business to do so.

          Which feels weird to defend GoDaddy, because, while I haven’t used them in a few years, my experience with them is that they’re an awful registrar, but mostly because of how hard they make it to transfer away and how sleazy they get with sales tactics. And their ads haven’t been… good, but I’d probably let that slide if they provided reliable, good service.

        What’s the problem with Namecheap? I’ve been with them since GoDaddy got on the shit list, but I’m not against moving again.

          Honestly, nothing. But they’ve been having more network and dns issues, which caused resolution issues. So I’m moving away entirely.

          Yeah, I’ve been waiting for Cloudflare to finally support .dev but it might be too late before Squarespace transfers sites. I might have to temporarily use porkbun

              I just have everything else on Cloudflare, unless they never support the .dev domain it doesn’t make sense to keep one domain separated from my others. No personal dislike or disrespect towards porkbun.

            I have a .ms domain registered with nic.ms but I point the domain name servers at cloudflare and i can manage it in CF with all their features. I do have to pay for it elsewhere but that’s a minor inconvenience.

          No idea. I moved my personal .dev over and that was fine. But I pay for a premium .dev domain and can’t move that yet. No explanation from Cloudflare.

      Probably not Google Cloud Domains, I’m in the middle of a transition to GCP, and this is total overkill, while at the same time not having the convenience I was hoping to find. I’ve got to deploy a whole custom cloud function to replace the Synthetic DNS record for my dynamic DNS.
