I'm on PorkBun now, but I've used Njalla for a few years and had no issues with them. The reason I switched was simply because I wanted to own the domain, because with Njalla the domain isn't actually yours, it's registered to Njalla. Note that this is by design, in the sense that when someone looks up the domain, they won't get your info, but Njalla's instead. After a while, I've gotten less comfortable with the idea of someone else owning the domain I paid for, so I switched.
But you never truly "own" a domain anyway, you just rent it via the registrars. The registrars and registries can take it away from you at any moment anyway.
Ugh. Then I guess it's time to reconsider my registrar again.
Why, PorkBun is great?
