When I registered my first one in about 2013 it was 10 bucks a year. I registered them for the lols, pointed retarded URLs at my friend's servers and spammed it. You can Proton Mail now for free I think? - I pay for some server space but it's a fraction of the cost of hosting even the domain name. It should be cheaper ten years plus later, not more expensive 😭 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 1 point 1 month ago (1 child) Depends on the domain I think but yeah I don't understand why registrars can own them and I can't. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 1 point 1 month ago* I don't know about these days but I'm pretty sure you used to be able to become a registrar somehow. I used to work with a .com.au registrar and got to enforce the policy. It was fun shutting down people from trying to register the weird shit. I held the line with some honourably sweaty neck beards for a year or so. permalink fedilink source parent
