Namecheap is cheap and has low cost (free?) Privacyguard. Nearlyfreespeech.net is a principles-first web hosting company that is committed to free speech and also offers domain hosting and registration.
Namecheap all the way. They've been my registrar for almost 20 something years.
I use both, NFS for domain and hosting for my personal website and namecheap for everything else. NFS has no BS and I've had zero problems with them. Namecheap's interface and tools are more sophisticated.
