A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Can someone give me a ELI5 for why that is bad and people are planning on migrating away to other services?
I have 15-20 domains with Google so it'll be a pain to manage something else. Even if I can't trust Google's privacy or product continuity, I do trust Google's security and have multi factor enabled already, so having my domains protected by them is a great thing. I'm pretty much always logged into my Google account on my PC so it's one fewer account to manage.
Squarespace is probably fine, but I bought my first domains through a web builder and web host years ago and they slowly raised prices and reduced features until I had to leave them and moved to Google.
