wait until you hear why, and that you can optionally use e2e but lose other functionality.
And end-to-end encryption not supported on web client and doesn't sync properly between devices. Useless.
which is good, actually. We don't want a way through which a server could tell a new device all the information it needs to decrypt messags

The "serverHold" status is not set by GoDaddy, but by the actual .ME registry https://domain.me/ GoDaddy could apply "clientHold" but not "serverHold"
I found this post: "I contacted Identity Digital, the registry operator for the .ME domain zone, to request the reason why t.me was placed on "serverHold". The company has now responded and confirmed that the domain was suspended due to OFAC-related compliance requirements. The domain t.me has been placed on serverHold due to OFAC-related compliance requirements Identity Digital also stated that, under its agreements…
On the other hand, all of their infrastructure (registry websites, nameservers, whois server) are hosted on Identity Digital, Godaddy, and Afilias IPs. Does anyone know what the relationship between .me and Identity Digital is?

Clue me in? Is GoDaddy particularly censorial as a registrar?
Their TOS isn't very protective of domains. Tend to disable at the slightest fake email. Namecheap/Spaceship are a little better, IIRC.

squarespace is legit. GCP cloud domains are moved to them.
Never had any trouble with them, but also moving away from them is unnecessarily hard (the code sometimes takes a day to arrive) and they cover the entire interface with their paid hosting stuff which makes them a poor registrar. I ended up on them because of Google Domains selling off but got off them because very annoying to use.

I'd honestly be careful with squarespace. They are owned by private equity, advertise on countless YouTube channels, and at the same time their core market is under a looming threat from the AI companies. You need your domain registrar to be stable and predictable. Their profile is not that.

Curiously enough, .me's whois record does not list Identity Digital as a contact (as seems to be standard practice with externally-managed ccTLDs, such as .gi), and .me is not listed on Identity Digital's "TLD Portfolio"[0] On the other hand, all of their infrastructure (registry websites, nameservers, whois server) are hosted on Identity Digital, Godaddy, and Afilias IPs.

doMEn is the registry of .ME.

.st went down for most of a day: https://blorn.com/post/29851770158/beware-cutesy-two-letter-... Little TLDs may be poorly run. Would not trust again.
Technical failures are different from procedural ones (didn’t verisign blow up dot com or something years ago?). The future is domain resiliency - whether that’s via apps or other methods.
