Anyone recommend a domain registrar, that's only a domain registrar and nothing else? I'm not interesting in Email Hosting, Web Hosting, Parking, or whatever other silly nonsense. Just domain registration, delegation and renewal.
@falsifian by the way, on the last Saturday of every month, we generally hold a online video call/social meet up, where we just get together and talk about stuff if, you're interested in joining us this month.

At this point I'm thinking of migrating away from OnlyDomains and choosing a different registrar. If OnlyDomains can't even do something as simple as maintain their own fucking domain name, how am I supposed to trust them as a service/registrar of my domains?! 🤔 -- Not only that, but recently they've put all their domain prices up too on a bunch of TLD(s).

@bender That ain't the half of it. The worst part is, they (support) don't give a crap, seem to be poorly trained in "incident management" and you can't even tell anyone at the company about this (that cares) 🤦‍♂️

Not only that, but how embarrassing is it for a domain registrar to not be able to get domain management right? Support tell me things like:

> We only have onlydomains.com we don't use onlydomains.com.au

To which I reply:

> No, you are wrong. I've been a very long-term customer and your portal has always been available on both domains. You don't know your own company's history.

@stigatle Is saving the password a good idea security-wise? Or do you save/load it from the user's password manager using an API to do so? 🤔

That's scrutiny is definitely something I wanna look at running. 👌

@mckinley oh I see! Yeah, health checks looks like something I wouldn't have any need to run myself or use because most of my background jobs or tasks run in my swarm cluster anyway and I don't really have that many background or cron type jobs in the first place.

Okay. The house is properly cleaned up. There are 77 users on this pod, 34 inactive and 12 active. That's a good effort I _think_. Maybe some of those folks that haven't been around for a while, but were pretty decent folks to talk to and interact with may come back. For example @off_grid_living 😅

@aelaraji I do and we (royal asshole we) still use and abuse people's data even today right?! 🤣

Why should or would I want to join that evil fucked ip crowd 😅

To me as a self-hosted enthusiast its noise and wasteful.

The reason I think this is some kind of attack is based on the repeated content and some of its uniqueness 🤔 This is so uncharacteristic if both victims 🤔
