Never buy .xyz - sh.itjust.works
sh.itjust.works
I just wanted to post this here because I want to help you all and hurt gen.xyz as much as possible. I had a .xyz domain through njal.la [http://njal.la] which I used to host jellyfin, homeassistant, and other basic things for friends and family. My domain recently became inaccessible without any notice. After a while of troubleshooting, I found that it had been reported to xyz as abuse, and they must have done zero investigation whatsoever before serverholding my domain. I thought about opening a ticket with xyz to get my domain back, but realized that I no longer wish to buy from some shitty company that will take down any site without warning. Bought a .com domain since they are somewhat reputable, and I would advise everyone here to never buy a .xyz domain. Angry rant over.

Should have maybe posted here first, sorry if main was not the correct community to start with.

      Yeah, looks like. Still thought its worth mentioning in case this is the one used for this domain too.

      Edit: now I remember why I linked it, it was also this comment saying something that all xyz’s go through the same registrar? https://lemmy.world/comment/10637835

      Not registrar, registry, which seems to be gen.xyz

        Sopuli’s registrar is Hostinger, I don’t think there is a threat of a similar problem.
