What EU based registrars would you recommend?

For me personally, one that's well supported by DNS-01 providers for let's encrypt. Unfortunately there's not that many and often the process is broken.

  What does that have to do with registrar? You are talking about DNS zone hosting which can be separate. And I always prefer to keep it that way.

    It can be separate yes but I generally keep it the same for simplicity

I haven't looked into this yet, so I cannot recommend. I'll work my way through the list here: https://european-alternatives.eu/category/domain-name-registrar https://european-alternatives.eu/category/domain-name-regist...

Hetzner might be a good choice to keep things together, as we're already using some services from them.

  I like Hetzner, but I'd avoid having everything under the same provider. Sometimes hosting companies suspend accounts. If that happens, it's useful to have your domains and backups with different providers.

I wouldn't hard recommend based on lack of solid experience of using them over time, but Gandi showed a lot of promise for me. Context: I used to run a domain-related service that used registrar api's and gandi's seemed the most well thought out by a considerable way. The drawback was they're quite expensive for registrations/renewals unless you're doing it at volume. I had reservations about them being a French company wrt support but their API was so good I never needed to contact them on anything. Definitely worth a look.

I’ve been using Gandi for quite a few years now without any trouble.
