Not sure I have ever seen a company use a .eu domain - which I suspect was set up as a vanity project by the eu.

- jarfil 8y agoI think it's mostly being used by European institutions, but there are notable exceptions like http://leave.eu http://leave.eu a pro-Brexit campaign which would lose its domain (the irony).
- Piskvorrr 8y agoI see a fair number of them - mostly by mid-sized European manufacturing companies. The rationale seems to be "Where's sprockets.at? Who knows? (Austria btw) sprockets.eu? Probably in the EU." Usually there's a local country domain as well, with one of them being canonical.
- alias_neo 8y agoProbably for the same reason I don't use the .uk aliases I own. They confuse people, .com, people can deal with, .co.uk people can deal with, but older and non-technical people can struggle with what is out of the norm (although not new). These people, unlike us techies aren't visiting .io domains or .xyx domains. When I've tried to use .uk sufficient people have understood it to mean .co.uk that is was a problem.
