What is your favorite domain name provider, and why? - eviltoast

Is it one that you just use and works just fine? Or one that has proven to be reliable and responsible if they do a mistake and only want to satisfy you as a customer?

    I recently switched to Porkbun from Namecheap specifically because I found Namecheap’s “advanced DNS” settings to be somewhat excruciating to use, plus I also (finally, after doing it manually for a good few years) got around to setting up Certbot autorenewal, and there’s not really a good way to do DNS challenges for autorenewal with Namecheap. Just generally I find Porkbun’s UI to be very simple and streamlined without actually hiding anything from me. I also found that my domain renewal prices went down with the switch, something I didn’t even consider when switching.

    That being said, Porkbun and Namecheap are literally the only domain registrars I’ve used. For all I know there could be something out there I’d prefer way more.
