Domains was one of the few Google products I still used. Free WHOIS, simple/clean interface, no pushy upsells, and it took advantage of Google's scale.

Also interested in recommended alternatives. I saw Porkbun mentioned a few times on HackerNews.

I have some experience with porkbun. Support is nice and pricing is pretty good. That's about it. Their own DNS is just cloudflared without many features which I don't mind because I don't use it.
