The world’s 3rd most popular domain registrar has been sold to Squarespace – but Google didn’t notify customers just yet. When could this happen, and why is Google silent?
I’m still in disbelief having heard this for the first time today.
Yep… I saw this last week and transferred my domain to CloudFlare afterwards. It took me a day or two to get it all fixed back up with my iCloud stuff and other DNS crap, but it’s done now. I’m really getting sick of google killing all their products.
Same thing for me, my domains were set to renew in August, but I transferred to Hover (cloudflare didn’t directly support my tld) but I set up my nameservers with Cloudflare.
Everything google touches dies, I’m very distrustful of any of their services, I should probably think of moving off gmail too haha
Yup, that’s my backup plan if I don’t like where things are going… Funny enough, after the announcement, exactly 1 day later, Cloudlflare sent me a migrate to them ad, as one domain was close to renewal.

Was even easier for me since I was already using cloudflare as my dns for my domain so it all just stayed the same

Same! I went with CF because I refuse to ever use SquareSpace because they have ads in every podcast
