This is my plan.
I will lose some email history, but at least I don’t lose my email future.
However, you can’t own a domain, you are just borrowing it. There is still a risk that gets shut down too, but I don’t think it is super common.

- danillonunes 1y agoAs for the domain risks, my suggestions is to stick with the .com/.net/.org or something common in your country and avoid novelty ones such as .app, .dev, etc, even if you can't get the shortest and simpler name. And if you have some money to spare, just renew it to 10 years.
- data-ottawa 1y agoEven if you renew for 10 years, set a calendar reminder annually to check in and make sure your renewal info is still good.
- spencerflem 1y agoYou can also top it up every year as well. Two for one :)
- noAnswer 1y agoWhy should you lose some email history? Just move the mails to a differente folder. I self host my mails but still use a freemail for the contact address for my providers. No chicken and egg problem for me.
