[sudo-sys] Re: asking for suggestions: domain names + web hosting

Both sudo and omni use gandi as a registrar and DO as a vps host. Sudo also uses DO as a nameserver, while omni uses cloudflare. I have been using DO for vps for a long time, and have never had much of a reason to switch. Lately they've been focusing more on scale, and less on innovative ux features, which is disappointing but not surprising. I'm open to other suggestions but it's worked fine for me and my projects. I used to like Linode because of their OS support and lish (i wish everything had lish) but they got too expensive. I used to always use DO for nameservers, but cloudflare has better support for certbot which has won me over lately - they make it easy to create access tokens with granular permissions to eg renew a wildcard cert and nothing else. Cloudflare is not a particularly ethical choice, they're a mini empire who doesn't give a shit about you, but they're dev friendly and less evil than amazon, and tbh this is low on the list of things that keeps me up at night. The last time I seriously researched registrars was about a decade ago, and I settled then on gandi, mostly because of DNSSEC support.
