Knock on wood, I have not used them in quite a while.
Good. The less Google does the better the internet will be.
Are CloudFlare, Amazon or Microsoft any better? Google at least take security (if not privacy) very seriously.
In general it seems bad to have any huge profit-driven organisation exercising significant control over open standards, but I do think that Google is lesser than many of the other evils.
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.
except for premium .dev
WHYY ;-;
No idea. I moved my personal .dev over and that was fine. But I pay for a premium .dev domain and can’t move that yet. No explanation from Cloudflare.
What’s the problem with Namecheap? I’ve been with them since GoDaddy got on the shit list, but I’m not against moving again.
Honestly, nothing. But they’ve been having more network and dns issues, which caused resolution issues. So I’m moving away entirely.
