I only have that sample size of one, so I have zero confidence of whether it's better or not. All I can say is I had no problems with it that one time. Newegg didn't even try to contest (as far as I'm aware).

Newegg doesn't limit their fraud to selling broken open-box items. I personally saw them try to pass off an expensive mouse that was crusty and scratched as "new" (I double checked and it was NOT marked as an "open box&q

Discord has (very fast) search and I've had a ton of success searching for a problem and finding answers. YMMV I guess.

I don't know other registrars offerings, but OP was particularly concerned about using Gmail (or something like it) and having good deliverability, which makes Google Domains + Gmail the right solution in my mind.

Wow. No one here mentioned the obvious. Transfer your domains to Google Domains. Use the free email alias feature to rewrite your custom domain users into Gmail users (or wherever else). Configure Gmail to send from your custom domain. I do

That's not just anecdotal. The carriers do process short code and toll free traffic differently from regular 10DLC. You don't even need do register an a2p campaign for them.
