Hi,

Unfortunately I need to register a domain name for the "old" Internet. So this one with the domain name scam[^DomainScam] and so on..

So which registrar would you recommend that is the closed regarding the FLOSS / GNU philosophy ?

And then I hope the world, will migrate to something better than this WWW scam and I could get rid of this domain..

Thanks.

I don't think you're looking for a registrar, you are looking for some third party DNS server that acknowledges "the domain scam" I guess.

All the major and minor DNS providers rely on the w3 registrar to populate their domain name to IP addresses. So services like hover or GoDaddy will register with the registrar and then DNS services will get your routing info from them.

I'm not aware of any other registrar out there or some DNS service that allows you to submit your own routing info.

I think you should just go with whomever is cheapest. Get a domain you like and use it. RMS owns stallman.org I don’t see the need to overthink it.

name.com not too shabby and well priced compared to others
