Terraria on Stadia cancelled after developer's Google account gets locked

.eu is not a country. .co.uk holders were unaffected by Brexit. meanwhile .org had price caps removed and was nearly sold off to private capital on the promise of "we promise that for the first decade we will only raise prices by 10%/yr". I'm not so sure that a legacy TLD is a better bet than a ccTLD with a similar record of stability when we get into these long term long tail events.

Also .org falls under US influence, which may not have worked out so well had you been making this decision in Ukraine a decade ago

.eu is classified as a ccTLD [0], not gTLD by IANA, so for the purpose of this discussion it is one - and the registrar for it (EURid) requires ciitzenship of one of the member states to hold .eu domain. EU citizens living the UK can have .eu names, but no-longer-EU-citizens of UK do not.

Very much agreed on .org.

Ahhh, hadn't realised that. Though I'd suspect .com and .net would be in the same position as .org in that respect.
