The registrar in question is iwantmyname, so I guess you can add them to your "do not use" list.

I feel like it's better to have a "do use" list for something as important as a domain name registrar.

- Namecheap

- Cloudflare

- Route 53 (if on AWS)

Any others?

easyDNS still seems good for those who want a more old style "full fat" registrar like gandi was? I know some folks I respect who have long used it alongside Route 53. Though they don't appear to support hardware tokens which is a major black mark in my book in 2024.

As well as Gandi, DNSimple was another higher service one I really liked that went crazy on pricing. Agreed the registrar scene nowadays seems like a quite small "do use" list vs a couple of "don't use" :(.

I've been using easyDNS for 5(10?) years... Never had a problem with them and highly recommend them. I do 'hobby stuff' - nothing fancy, but it always just works. One time I called to ask if they support wildcard sub-domains (www..example.com or whatever..example.com) and actually had a real engineer pick up the phone :-) (btw - it did work, very well actually :-) )

The backup mail spool is nice too...

all in all - not the cheapest - but worth the piece of mind in my book :-D
