Doesn't matter the level of support, the CEO of Cloudflare was involved and still ended up bringing politics into infrastructure.

Who is a good/trustworthy registrar then?

https://namesilo.com - reliable, cheap & they offer free whois privacy. All they do is sell domains.
I couldn't recommend namesilo more! They almost always have the slowest price, very close to what the registry charges them.
Their UI is dead simple and gets things done well and fast.
Amazon Route 53. Full blown registrar.
cloudflare?
Problem with Cloudflare is that their CEO has taken down a domain for political reasons.
While I agree with him taking the domain down, but what about the next CEO?
That's just false information. They didn't take any domain down. They stopped offering their CDN/proxying service to a customer. That customer is/was free to host their own content using their own or a different service. No company should be required to offer services to anyone and everyone unless they are the only option on the market. And cloudflare is very far from the only CDN on the market.
Unless I'm thinking of something else, it's not a domain registered through CloudFlare. The taken down site was using CloudFlare's reverse proxy service. IIRC, Matthew wrote about the incident in length.
I personally don't use CF for various reasons, but this site take down is not one of them.
