I’m currently on the lookout for privacy-respecting domain registrars. What are you guys using and why?

Edit: I’ve registered my domain with Porkbun. I got a really cool one, it’s called reallyaweso.me!

    Recently moved over to porkbun after dealing with a couple billing issues with namecheap and not getting the best customer service. Been pretty happy so far.

      I moved all of my domains to Porkbun when Google Domains started to close down or become SquareSpace or whatever they were doing.

      No complaints so far.

      I’ve been using Porkbun for over 5 years and haven’t had any issues. I switched from a mix of Google Domains and Namecheap.

    Currently using Infomaniak.com and I’m really liking it. They are a bit pricy compared to other registrars but

    • they have solid privacy policy
    • their servers use renewable energy
    • they let you set up DDNS with a simple bash script
    • they offer some cool email and kSuite benefits with the purchase of a domain

    Google Domains because I have a Google account and buying a domain on it was easy when I needed it. I’m still on Google Domains but you’ve reminded me I need to continue the transfer to Cloudflare before I get forced over to Square Space because they don’t support Dynamic DNS.

    Cloudflare.

      Not sure why you got downvoted, wanting to do business with a work co-op is valid. I don’t however know of one :/

    Some European ones because the domains have European TLDs. .eu for example is only available by EU registrars IINM. But also, I do my best to keep the money local where I can.
