Seeing the news with Google domains, I’m looking to move registrars, and was wondering who everyone uses.

I use porkbun.

The prices are similar to google domains and the dns management interface is ok.

I like their sense of humour. The definitely don't take themselves too seriously.

Moved to Porkbun yesterday. No fuss, quick setup and pricing is good.

Been using porkbun as the registrar and cloudflare for Dns, no complaints. I like the cloudflare interface better and like having Dns and registrar separate.

Do they have dyndns support? That was what led me to google.

Keep in mind you can always use a different DNS provider who does support dynamic dns. For example you could use cloudflare (free) with a domain bought from Pork Bun.

Yeah, it’s just nice to consolidate where able.

I used porkbun with Cloudflare DNS, porkbun were cheaper for me than Google.
