A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.

Registrar alternative to namecheap (lemmy.ca)

Hi,

American looking to move my domains to somewhere more stable. I found some alternatives on Google, but I worry they are basically GoDaddy.

Any suggestions for domain registrars?

We don't have a lot of Canadian registrar's. https://easydns.com/ is the only one I know of.

I usually use porkbun but they're American.

A registrar with a website more modernly designed, based in ON but Vancouver uses it:

I think there's actually quite a few, per CIRA's list of registrars, but I haven't gone through all of them tbh.
