I sworn by Gandi since the early '00s, but they sold themselves to a private equity firm recently and things almost immediately went just as one might fear.

Leave while you can.

Why? Would anything happen to my renewed domains?

I know they no longer support free e-mail service, however, which was a bummer.

I have not found a better alternative.

I never had an issue with Gandi so far.

They’ve cranked up the fees for renewals. New registrations of .com domains are €11 whereas renewals are €32. Some long-tail TLDs are much much more.

When you have as many domains (i.e. amazing future business opportunities!) as I do, that adds up to a lot.

So one by one I’m moving them all to Porkbun. Seems great so far.

I can imagine it doesn’t matter so much if you don’t have many domains.

Yeah, only have three domains.
