Gandi changed their TOS and price structure last year, so I ported everything over to Porkbun for a small savings, but mostly as a big middle finger to Gandi.
If you're gonna get banged that kind of cash for functions you're already using, you may as well look at better registrars, and get better value for your spend.
Shop around.
I also migrated everything to Porkbun. Gandi used to be good too, we used it extensively at work in my previous org (~3 years ago).
Is the whole sector regressing? It seems these companies aren't happy just earning a profit based on the service they offer. There is always something "more" that they need to do. Often this makes the experience worse. Meh.
Super happy with Porkbun BTW, it just works, does what it's needed and I found the renewals to be 50% cheaper compared to GoDaddy...
GoDaddy has always been pretty shitty.
