what registrars are you using?

jsg

internet.bs
Not the cheapest but neither badly expensive, and reliable and neutral (no political games), in short what I expect and want from a registrar (or any company for that matter).

I also have a few domains with porkbun, but will transfer them away due to them playing political games instead of simply doing their job (plus too much marketing spam).

Re. Gandi: used them years ago but left them because they got worse (really, really bad and also corrupted). Never again.

I'll also keep my eyes on spaceship as they have lots of fans here, we'll see whether they change due to new ownership.

P.S. @fluffernutter why are nonsensical registrars like e.g. epic in the poll but not internet.bs?

zejjnt

Way too many but I'm working on that. Currently Cloudflare, Spaceship, regery, internet.bs, & Porkbun.

Trying to migrate as much as possible to CF, Porkbun and Regery but some TLDs are so insultingly more expensive (like 2 x or more) at all but 1 or 2 registrars and I'm poor so you gotta do what you gotta do -.-

Spaceship, DynaDot, Sav

I am in the same boat, but you didn't include cloudflare. That's where I was thinking of going too. Is there a specific reason you left it out?

Cloudflare

@TrK said:
Cloudflare and openprovider.

Cloudflare is restrictive compared to other registrars no?

Do you mean nameservers being hardcoded to Cloudflare?

Yes

I mostly use Cloudflare for just DNS, I wouldn’t know what other DNS host to use that has all modern features and is free

Namecheap

Actually no. EU is starting to fall apart. Leaders will need money, so most likely price will increase there too.

For my personal domains: InternetBS, Namecheap, Dynadot and IncogNET for the domains we are accredited to sell (ST, PW, GD, GL, FO, VG).

I think I have one or two in porkbun from domain auctions. I should check.

spaceship

Wherever the cheapest is, I'll be there lol. My .click is on amazon aws since its dirt cheap $3/year there. Got to use third party dns server though since they charge $6/year per hosted zone.

a2razor

Still using Earthlink here. Have been since the dialup days.

SpaceShip offer some of the cheapest new or transfer domain, so I use it

Porkbun, the second one

Namesilo, some domains still there, but may be moved out the next renewal

+1 Dynadot

It looks like dynadot is a little cheaper than porkbun, for .com at least. I used porkbun before transferring my domains to spaceship.

I used dynadot a long, long time ago. Back then, they had no full whois privacy. Your name was still public. It looks like they have full whois privacy now, though, including the name. Is that right? Does it cost extra?

tld-list still shows dynadot whois privacy as "unsupported."

Dynadot has full whois privacy for free.

using or used: porkbun, sav, spaceship, dynadot, namesilo, hostinger, bigrock, namecheap, internetbs, gandi
blacklist: one.com

I like Dynadot. Most of my names are with Dynadot and Namecheap. But I also uses Spaceship (they are also namecheap) and porkbun here and there.

Yeah, but since almost 80% of my domains utilise CF for DNS and other services i don't mind being tied to them, well I am thinking of gradually moving all of my domains to open provider of we can short out the taxation and input tax credit scheme with them, I will happily ditch CF for them.

It's better to keep the domain registrar separate from other hosting services. Like they say, don't keep all baskets in one apple..

Spaceship is great but now they are hallucinating - if i search for a domain hey.tg on spaceship, it will suggest hey.io for 31$ - https://ibb.co/fGS97rTP

You are searching for a tld that the registrar does not support. What do you expect?

You can even search for any other, its same response. I am just giving an example.
