I’m looking for a reasonably priced domain registrar that complies with European regulations such as the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive (e.g. not making redacting personal data in RDAP/WHOIS a paid service) and who lets me pay and manage just a domain without being forced to pay for multiple extra services I don’t want or need; preferably with a free SSL certificate included and DNSSEC. I’m currently at the US provider Porkbun which has a good service, but is sadly USA-based and does not fully comply with the GDPR.
Without whois info them ever going bankrupt risks losing domains as you couldn’t ask the NIC for the TLD to give you back access with a new registrar, sounds sketchy.
They’ve been around for quite a while. I’ve know about their existence for > 10 years.
