Porkbun is where I'm moving everything. If considered cloudflare as well.

Currently moving my dns to digital ocean and cloudflare. After that, will start exfiltrating the domains to porkbun.

Cloudflare Domains sells at cost and has been great.

Moving domains to another Cloudflare user is a total pain though, especially if you sell your site to someone.

Cloudflare Domains is not a legitimate registrar option because you are REQUIRED to use the Cloudflare nameservers. If you want to use different nameservers, you have to transfer the domain out to a different registrar.

Would also recommend. They support a lot of extensions and you’re not going to get it for cheaper.

Been slowly abandoning my namecheap account…

I transferred all my domains to Porkbun. Their renewal prices are low and so far, I don't have any complaints.

Pitifully, Porkbun's marketplace depends on Paypal... Otherwise it'd be perfect!

Hm? They appear to have Stripe and crypto options too, as well as Alipay.

The trinity: Cloudflare, Porkbun, Namecheap

strongly endorse cloudflare and porkbun. namecheap is ehh.

Anyone that isn't Godaddy.

Why?

We use quite a few registrars and GD is far from the worst, in my opinion.

From reading the Protonmail Reddit this one pops up a lot:

Anyone have experience with them?

Simple, straight forward, privacy friendly, crypto payments, support was about 5x faster with Njalla than Gandi.

It's more expensive but I don't care. It's pennies a day difference and it's critical infra, not something yo cheap out on, especially given the horror stories of other registrars over the years.

I moved everything there.

I just use AWS. Probably not the cheapest option, but I know they will not play games with domain sniping or other kinds of nonsense.

I think Namecheap is the goto recommendation on hacker news.

I have been with them since forever. I see no particular reason to switch, although I find their UI rather clunky.

I’m about to switch away from namecheap, been meaning to ever since they cut off a subset of their customers without much warning or recourse. Haven’t gotten around to it yet but I’ve since lost trust and wonder whether that couldn’t happen to me next if I continue using namecheap. So just be careful if your views don’t align with theirs.

Just checked my account, and I'm 10 days away from my 20-year anniversary. Holy smokes.

been using joker for 25 years or so

Namesilo.com Since... 2012? I think? Never found a reason to change? I never see it suggested in these lists for some reason -- Maybe I've been missing something all along...?
