Clue me in? Is GoDaddy particularly censorial as a registrar?

  they're particularly incompetent

  GoDaddy is just a general clusterfuck of arbitrary decisions. I don't have anything ready offhand to point to, but the general consensus is that you should avoid GoDaddy pretty vehemently.

  Their TOS isn't very protective of domains. Tend to disable at the slightest fake email. Namecheap/Spaceship are a little better, IIRC.

    Namecheap was recently sold to PE. I had been with them for decades and immediately transferred to Cloudflare. Lessor of evils.

      Cloudflare is still a greater evil than Namecheap. Try Porkbun or Dynadot.

        I've had really good success with porkbun. Everything seems to work for me.
