Ahh crap.
What's the best no nonsense alternative?
Cloudflare is just that. It supports most domains except for premium .dev (for now) from google. Registrar costs are at cost and no markup. Lots of options, no pressure to do anything beyond free.
Next option is Namecheap, but they’ve had issues lately.
I'll vouch for cloud flare. Its hands down my favorite registrar I have used.
The ABSOLUTE, HANDS DOWN worst one you can possibly ever pick, would be GoDaddy. Don't. Just Don't. Don't even search for a domain there.... They have been caught sniping up domains after you search for them.. Absolute scum.
Had some guy from one of their shell companies tell me a domain no one would ever spend five figures on was being sold for $55k. GoDaddy sucks massively.
