Where do you recommend to buy a domain name?

3 years ago by pe1uca to c/programming

I was looking into hover, namecheap, and google domains.
This is the first time I'm looking into this so ELI5.

Is any one better than the others?
Would I find issues with different DNS set in my pi-hole?

I've been using gandi.net since forever, it's alright. The main selling point these days is the availability of pretty much all TLDs I guess. They have a strong privacy and consumer rights legacy, but that's been kind of fading as they've grown over the years.

I don't think one is necessarily better than another, though there are some sketchy actors out there with some real shady business practises.

If you go with any of the ones you mention in your OP you'll be fine though.
