My experience with Registrar has been 4/5 okay and 1/5 horrible so far. I transferred five domains from Namecheap, and four of them went through within an hour. The fifth was in a pending status. I was charged a one year renewal for each domain as part of the transfer process. The fifth domain hadn't transferred after a few days so I filed a support ticket. They told me it could take up to 15 days. After roughly 30 d…

#74Does Cloudflare Registrar support U2F authentication yet? I don't trust any service with mission-critical stuff that doesn't have U2F. Domains are way too valuable to keep them in registrars without U2F.
Just curious, what are the domain registrars currently support U2F? Also, just to be sure U2F is an additional methods of 2FA, not the only method of 2-step, so to me having U2F is not necessarily making accessing your account securer.
Google, Amazon, Gandi (and some others I can't remember off the top of my head) support U2F.
>having U2F is not necessarily making accessing your account securer.
I don't agree with that at all. There are numerous cases of various 2FA methods being taken advantage of. No one has yet managed to crack U2F.

#75Been looking to transfer my domains away from Godaddy but can't find a registrar I like that accepts .ws, which is my main domain. Cloudflare doesn't either :\
Re: Cloudflare Registrar
#76To allow a third party to modify the DNS (eg pfSense dynamic DNS client) you have to use an API key that has full access to modify everything in your Cloudflare account. You can’t limit the type of operation and you can’t scope it to a domain. That’s nuts.

#77From what I can see, their senior leadership genuinely believes that, morally, they have an obligation to provide services for horrible people in exchange for money[1]. If you agree, use them! But if you think it's bad to defend these sites in an era of white nationalist terrorism, look elsewhere.

Re: Cloudflare Registrar
#78Before you register your domain with Cloudflare, please consider who their other customers are. Cloudflare today provides services for many white supremacist websites; they kicked off the Daily Stormer in 2017 after widespread criticism, but still receive money from many others. From what I can see, their senior leadership genuinely believes that, morally, they have an obligation to provide services for horrible peop…

#79Can anyone tell if they offer privacy? I'll move all of my parked domains here in a heartbeat if that's included. (I'd move my other domains here if I could use non-Cloudflare nameservers, even temporarily. I don't want downtime or other interruption.)
We do - all whois information is redacted by default for every domain on Cloudflare Registrar.

#80Earlier quoted context omitted.
Every time I've thought about moving away from Namecheap to something else I've remembered those once in a blue moon times I've actually needed to reach out to support for mission critical type of events. The support I've received has been absolutely stellar. Above and beyond what I would have expected to be their scope of service. I don't know any other providers I hold as highly in support, especially anything comi…
I dislike Namecheap for a few reasons. They don't let you log in with a _valid_ username and password if you are using a VPN. Their UI is pretty bad, too. If you have an adblocker, you don't see "Submit" buttons on a lot of forms (editing WHOIS information, etc.)... lots of small annoyances with their service.
