Quoting Michael P from the previous posting 'BALUG: meeting TODAY!: Tu 2023-01-21: Registars, etc.; & other BALUG News' :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
discussion topic: Registars[1], etc.
E.g. registrars (for domains) - the good, the bad, and the ugly, how to
select, pros/cons, things to consider, how not to screw up one's domain,
etc.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unless or until someone participating in that meeting is willing and able to provide notes on the discussion topic before/during this Sunday's BerkeleyLUG meetup, and besides [1], there are also at least the related links [2] and [3] as well as the related Forbes Advisor's [4] and [5].
Relatively concise[6] comments/thoughts using two or less "standard" screenfuls of information on the following partial list of non-Amazon, non-Google domain name registrars (ideally lowcost for those on a budget using individual Linux machines/seats) ??......
- Domain.com
- GoDaddy
- Namecheap
- easyDNS
- Register4Less
- (Of course cannot leave out Michael P's highly-recommended Gandhi.net ;-} )
