    It’s amazing how many cool projects they’ve funded the creation of, but never really advertised, and subsequently killed

        Why the F would they kill Google Domains. Don’t they own a freaking cloud? How is having a registrar not essential when you own a cloud?

        Damn, that page is so interesting. Thanks for the rabbit hole.

        Holy shit, Google has ADHD.

          At this point I’m just waiting for them to axe YouTube out of the blue and with maybe 2 days warning. If Google announces a project nowadays I just assume they’ll kill it off at some point.

          Google Domains

          Wait… This is a bit of a problem- all my domains are on Google Domains. Are there any other registrars with $12/yr domains that I can migrate to?

          Edit: considering cloudflare

            Your contract should be moved over to Cloudflare automatically and they have committed to honoring existing prices for now.

            Any of them if you register for just one year lol

            I used namecheap because they had .com for I think 11$ on sale, and I bought two domains for my stuff

            But they sure ask a lot for cool names
