While they have some (technical) downsides I figured they'd be interesting to experiment with so I was curious if any good ones were still available. Manually checking them one-by-one was kinda cumbersome, so I wrote a simple script to check availability for each possible single-emoji .to domain.

Turns out many were still available (about 70% at the time). I registered a few and decided to publicise the list. That was my weekend project ~2 weeks ago. Today I finally launched it.

I wrote more about the timeline and how I built it here: https://medium.com/@marckohlbrugge/get-your-own-emoji-domain...

Disclosure: I worked out an affiliate deal with my registrar so I get a 10% commission for each registration. Of course you're free to use your own registrar of choice.
