    This is one of the main reasons why I’ve been a boring stick in the mud and stuck to com/net/org domain names for stuff I’m that I intend to use for anything that’s going to be around for more than a short period.

    Odds are they’re not going to end up vanishing due to things utterly outside the control of, well, anyone or get sold to a horrible steward of them that jacks up prices insanely or does other stupid shit.

    I will admit to owning a few .us domains, but as a US-ian, if the .us TLD vanished, I’m pretty sure my domain names would be very, very, very far down the list of shit I’m actually concerned about at that moment.

      Yeah, my domains are .com or .us, the .com ones face the outside world for whatever reason and the .us I use to mean “us my family” rather than US, though I’m a citizen so I’m in the clear

      If .us suddenly goes somewhere its prrrrrobably true that I am also gone in whatever caused that, too
