Good that you’ve put the work in to compile your list, but for anyone new; this is a list of C-tier hosts, and seems to have a pretty strong focus on “privacy” hosts - some of the privacy features can be nice, but it can be a double edged sword. By using a privacy focussed host, you end up co-habitating with other privacy focussed users, which tends to have a higher-than-average concentration of sketchy or outright criminal users. This can have an impact on IP reputation and other operational issues, even if you aren’t doing anything sketchy yourself
Non-refundable registration fees are standard in the industry; I was referring to their notoriously predatory “extra add-ons” that they hard-sell on people. Also, in my experience, they are easily 25-50% more expensive
That guy again… I just repost what i commented last time:
after looking around on that site, i deeply mistrust the original author about probably everything. using the search term “christchurch shooting was faked”
and arguing that the search results attack conspiracy theories, which means that there is censoring going on - that does not fit my definition of sanity.
e: ah, and the moon landing was fake and covid shots are evil. dudes, this guy is nuts, dont even take the time of the day from him.

tbh GoDaddy looks sussy too if you didn’t know better lol

Their vos price isn’t bad, but keep in mind no refunds if you buy a year of service.
