I've been very happy with Porkbun. https://porkbun.com

I moved my domains to Porkbun some years ago when Google sold their domain stuff to Squarespace. Absolutely no headaches, and the one time i got double-charged after an API error during checkout, it was solved within 15 minutes with a human. I recommend them a lot.

I enjoy the warning in the footer:

"WARNING: This site has been known to cause a mind blowing experience. We recommend you prepare yourself mentally and if possible be sitting down. Side effects may include saving money, letting out a chuckle, and sporadic oinking."

Domain related: I regret getting a .io domain for my email and website; with the price increases, it's not far from $100/year. I'm looking to move from Namecheap to Porkbun and to move to a .com domain.

Do you know if they support dynamic DNS? I self host most of my stuff and I have a dynamic IP at home

Same here. Recently migrated quite a few domains from Namecheap to Porkbun and it only took a matter of minutes.

I also moved over and have been very happy.

Moved over after Gandi’s acquisition by PE and then price hikes. Hope Porkbun stays legit for at least another decade.

And porkbun, a seemingly privately owned company, isn't private equity?
