How much does it matter where my domain registrar is located?

Mr. Forager@lemmy.world to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 49 points –

Edit, Solved in comments đź‘Ś

I want to buy a domain name for personal usage (reverse proxy, selfhosting serivces). I'll probably go with a general purpose .net or my country specifc one. I am based in Northern Europe.

  • Does it matter based on where I am located where the domain is registered?
  • Any recommendations for domain registrars in that regard?

Thanks

Apparently google doesn't even offer new registrations anymore

Google has trained me to think “I wonder if that still exists” every time I remember one of their products.

The Google graveyard is vast.
