What do you use for a domain registrar?

I use namecheap.com with the DNS on Cloudflare

Namecheap is great
Seconded. I have multiple domains on name cheap, and manage those domains with cloud flare. Even my self-hosted stuff at home. Especially my self-hosted stuff at home. Maybe google wouldn’t notice a ddos, but my shitty spectrum internet sure would.

Cloudflare currently.

Have used Google, Amazon, namecheap too.

Just. Don't use godaddy

Ahh damn it google. Why do I ever trust any of their products?

Current favorite and where most of my domains reside is Porkbun. Secondary choice would be cloudflare.

I'm about to migrate everything from Gandi to porkbun. So far the UI has been really good.

Lately I've been registering domains directly at Cloudflare. If you're a Cloudflare user anyway then it's super convenient!

The only downside is that they don't support less popular TLDs (yet).

I use selfhost.de (they register domains via united-domains for you) who are specialized on self-hosting in Germany and offer a wide variety of options on how to connect a domain using dynamic DNS.

I like gandi.net. Their UI is pretty inoffensive.

I've been happy with Gandi but their future looks bleak. Gandi was bought by Total Webhosting Solutions/now your.online a couple of months back, which is pretty bad news. They've been purchasing Dutch companies and increasing prices while letting their services turn to shit for a while now. The raised prices came in a few weeks ago, we've yet to see the services turn to shit but I am extremely confident it will happen.

Gandi is just the first international purchase by TWS, so not many people know it, and there are few relevant references on the English-speaking web as most of this was localized to the Netherlands. You'd have to search on Dutch tech news sources like tweakers.net and use some translation tool to find anything meaningful.
- Ah that's disappointing, I've been a pretty happy (occasional) user for years. Enshittification hits everything eventually :(
Recently their prices have skyrocketed, Gandi are now poor value for money.
- Oh really? That's a shame. Do you have a better alternative?

my go-to for anything they support is porkbun: they’re cheap, reliable, and technically competent

for backup for domains they don’t cover, 101domain has a huge selection

for actual DNS hosting, i use cloudflare (migrating from dnsimple) but also wouldn’t be against route53

I've been using namecheap for years and redirect DNS through cloudflare. I think my yearly renewal is around $25. I've been thinking of transferring to cloudflare, but their pricing model is really expensive for their other products and don't really want to feel pigeonholed if my price gets inflated above what I already pay.

Namesilo. Genuinely cheap, and fantastic service every time I've needed to ask something. Plus: free privacy!

+1 for namesilo Website is absolutely barebones, but it does everything I need including allowing api access for dns challenges from let's encrypt.

Porkbun worked well for a newb like me.

What? Google domains is shutting down?! Damnit!

More info at https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/google-domains-to-shut-down/

Now out of the blue, Google Domains is shutting down and Squarespace is buying all customer accounts, barely a year after the product exited beta.

So Google domains becomes square space domains.

Few people mentioning cloud flare as their go to alternative. Whilst I'm sure technically their service would be great, I am sceptical keeping both the registrar and DNS under a single account. Am I being paranoid?

I like having money, so I use porkbun.com.

+1 for porkbun! i don’t have a bad word to say about them: cheap, reliable, technically competent

Dynadot -- relatively cheap (.net domain) and has a good interface. I can give you a referral code that's worth €4.50 if you choose to sign up with them. :-)

I use https://synergywholesale.com/domain-names/ in Australia, but I'm a reseller so I get pretty good rates.

OVH. With existing certbot integrations, a well documented API and not being too expensive I'm quiet happy with it.

I use 101domain.com

They're not always the cheapest option but they seem to support a lot of TLDs and their customer support is always fast and staffed by actual humans.

https://inwx.com

Same here! INWX is great

Like some others here, I’m currently in the process of switching all mine to Cloudflare directly

am a fan of Namecheap.They have lots of exotic domains. Domains are easy to manage, free domain privacy but their support is really slow and a bit incompetent.

For local domains, like: .UK, .US, .DE, I register there locally. Thus making sure that all my service providers are capable if handling the local privacy laws.

For DNS I use cloudflare.

Dreamhost is really great

Off topic, sorry, but I'm curious: Did a bоt copy your comment? Or is this some sort of Federation-related-weirdness?

- I accidentally posted using the wrong account. I tried to delete the other post which seemed to work on the instance but doesn't seem the federate.

AWS all the way for DNS and registration.

Same. I use AWS since I'm using AWS for everything else, and I can easily script it all to work together.
