Time to quit Namecheap. Can anyone recommend a good, ethical registrar, preferably Canadian?

It isn't Canadian but it's right here in my home state of Oregon: Porkbun

They're great, easy to use, and thus far despite some extremely questionable registrations of my own expressing a variety of views - no issues.

I also live close enough to their office that I could bang on the door if something were awry...

I have quite a few domains through them as well. Haven't seen anything bad about them and I've been treated as a valued customer so far.

Been using easyDNS for a long time on important domains. Canadian and no BS.

The CIRA website lists a few when you search for an available name.

Is there a smooth and easy way to move domains between registrars? Never done that before

It's a bit annoying to do but not difficult.

Heres the ICANN outline, but you'll have to check with your specific registrars

Glad I moved to porkbun. Starts countdown until inevitable news about them being bad too

AlecSadler@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 9 pts · 249d

I love Porkbun and live an hour from their office. I have had a number of extremely questionable registrations with them dating back to 2016 and have not had any issues thus far.

Dammit I've been using them for so long because they are... cheap

Cricket@lemmy.zip · 6 pts · 249d (2 replies)

I found that Porkbun is even cheaper, at least for .com, which is most of my domains. I've been moving everything over for a while.

parzival@lemmy.org · 3 pts · 248d (1 reply)

I was about to say they probably don't do the whois privacy thing but I was wrong, I'm transfering my domains rn

Cricket@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 248d

Cool!

miked@piefed.social · 15 pts · 249d (1 reply)

I have three domains I need to move from them. Should have listened to my son when he suggested Porkbun a few years ago.

Tangentism@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 249d

I moved a few domains to them in the middle of last year because my other host had raised their prices ridiculous amounts. Looks like I'll be moving them again!

It makes me sick that I ever gave money to these bastards

geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml · 12 pts · 249d

To be fair this happened two weeks ago with the new CEO, so the past doesn't really matter.

pineapple@lemmy.ml · 10 pts · 249d

Dang I was looking into them for an email domain, glad I didnt end up going with it.

mub@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 248d

I'm having trouble parsing the title. Help me, pls.

MashedTech@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 249d

I'm just using Cloudflare and Cyberfolks

Sxan@piefed.zip · 1 pts · 248d (1 reply)

God dammit. I hate moving domains.

geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 248d

On the bright side you get the opportunity to directly financially hurt a company because of their support for Zionism. Bonus points for mentioning this as the reason you are moving.
