> I mean, I am happy for them but this concept of growing a business to an exit is not going well for society as a whole

The last thing I want is to be a 70 y/o still supporting a registrar. Especially considering the margins.

You can be responsible with an exit and sell to someone you’d believe will keep the company’s mission.

And what if I can't find anyone? And what if they do 180 a week later?

And it's not like running a registrar is something what can even have a mission other than earning money.

You can retire or quit, like a normal person. I'm sure you can find a new CEO.

I would honestly be surprised if that was the case, but if you really tried, then you tried.

You pick who you’d hope would continue the mission OR you try to sell to employees.

Then you picked wrong, but the risk of picking wrong is not a good reason to not try to pick correctly.

The Alands Island .AX TLD allows anyone to be their own registrar for free. Only 20euro/year for domains.
