Comment on When would it make sense for someone to get a domain name?

Only makes sense if you plan on using it. For private use for example for email, or a small website, blog, portfolio, linktree, whatever. It's not expensive, though. Less than $10 a year depending on top-level domain and provider.

There’s also 1.111B class xyz domains which are very cheap number only domains at 1 USD a year or so but are longer and less memorable. Useful for private/test uses.

Don’t use .xyz for email, you will just get blocked since email providers see it as suspicious.
just get a .com

My domain is part of my phone number so it’s really easy for me to remember it. If you don’t want people to half 2/3 your phone number then maybe don’t do that. But I only use it for myself and it’s a lot less characters to remember than my IP.

Nice. Though that's something I don't see any good use for. I'd rather stick with my memorable 4.65€ a year .de domain 😅
