  Maybe you could use a provider that isn’t your domain registrar? I personally use Cloudflare.

  I’m pretty sure you can setup Dynamic DNS with Cloudflare. I don’t personally use that feature, but they have a ton of DNS configurations for you to choose. My domain’s email is also managed by Cloudflare. And it’s completely free!

  It was initially available. I checked multiple websites to compare prices/services. And when I entered it into GoDaddy.com, the domain was bought. I checked the WHOIS out of curiosity and coincidentally it’s owned by a GoDaddy subsidiary.

  Porkbun! There are many to pick from but from my experience Porkbun includes everything you need out of the box at no additional cost. Namecheap has very good first year deals, but after that it almost doubles in price.

  Which registrar you pick initially doesn’t matter too much. I started with Namecheap then moved to Porkbun after a year with them (Completely free to move, but you’ll have to buy an extra year if you move tho)

  Don’t use GoDaddy though. I was searching for a domain on that site and after a few minutes it was taken.

  Not a game dev but I’ve had interest in using Unity for machine learning. I’m now trying out Godot since it does have quite a few ML libraries and it seems to be maintained better than Unity’s ml-agents.

  Unity-ml-agents is quite a hassle to deal with but a few months ago I wasn’t able to find any altrrnatives. At least one good thing that came out of this is that I learned that there is an alternative to using Unity now.
