Actually we do have a pilot program going for registering domains via account.bsky.app if that gives you some sense of where our head’s at

- xelamonster 2y agoYou're becoming a domain registrar? Well I'm not sure that'll solve revenue but it's certainly interesting, I'd like to read more about the reasoning behind this if you have any posts or articles on it yet. Would also love to check out the code for a bsky-style registrar backend if that's open source :)
- jazzyjackson 2y agoRegistrar is namecheap @ a $5 premium. I think its not a bad price for users who don't want to muck about with DNS TXT records. https://bsky.social/about/blog/7-05-2023-namecheap https://bsky.social/about/blog/7-05-2023-namecheap https://bsky.social/about/blog/7-05-2023-business-plan https://bsky.social/about/blog/7-05-2023-business-plan
- xelamonster 2y agoThanks! Well I love mucking about with DNS TXT records so it's not for me then :). But Namecheap is my go-to registrar so I'm sure it'll be solid enough, hope it works out!
- xelamonster 2y agoCould totally beat Namecheap on search and provide good value there, I like theirs better than most but most are awful and theirs isn't amazing still, let me find name options I wouldn't find on other registrar searches and I'd happily pay a $5 premium.
- xelamonster 2y agoOh and obviously this is super early and you'd probably fix this on your own anyways but a quick note since I checked out the interface: you should disable autocorrect/autocomplete on the search form input. When I type a domain on my phone it inserts a space after the period and the search fails.
