The admin stated they won't be renewing the domain because .af is now controlled by the Taliban.

There's nothing wrong with ccTLDs as long as you pick the ccTLD of a country you trust.
Vanity ccTLDs (.ly, .af, .io) are almost always a terrible idea, but I don't see why I would trust a megacorp backed TLD like .coffee any more than I trust .dk or .fi. The same goes for de facto American ccTLDs like .com/.info/.net.
Yeah that's true. We just need to research who owns the TLD before long-term site and everything is ok.
Better to just setup your own ccTLD, for maximum trust.
(honestly only half joking)
.io is the British Indian ocean's territory, probably not really a risk i doubt anything's going to happen there.
