Comment on The prices differences of different providers for the same domain is crazy.
exu@feditown.com 1 week ago Do note that njalla isn’t a real registrar like all others. With normal registrars you are the legal owner of a domain name and your registrar has to follow ICANN rules. If you rent through njalla they own the domain and can do whatever they want with it.
Yes, they do have a contract with you, and do have phenomenal reputation, but they are a second entity with technical ability to take your domain, in addition to the regular registrar they run through.
In practice their status and contract with that partner probably makes it less likely your domain will be taken for for example legal reasons, compared to a typical registrar end-user contract.
