Same here. I've never had a reason to switch away.
Namecheap because cheap
Chose Namecheap just for domain and later ionos and their mail service for my 2nd.
+1 for namecheap. I'm happy with them as a registrar. Their support has always been fast and helpful if I have an issue. I use CloudFlare for DNS as they were easier to setup something for dynamic IP.
Same setup for me.
Veebimajutus. They are a local registrar in my country and I like to support local businesses.

OVH because cheap enough for me, europe based and reliable.
Namesilo, cheap and never had issues
cloudflare takes 0% commision, but its cloudflare
Ive been thinking about #dnsregistrars and #ssl certificates lately. Does anyone know a #coop #registrar ?
I stick with the big name registrars and then just use the cheapest for that TLD.
Initally some local site, then I transferred to GoDaddy, then to OVH (since GD is shit). One is still at Cloudflare (tried to move there, but they don't support al TLDs that I use, like ".eu").
For DNS I use Cloudflare. They provide a layer of privacy, i.e. your server IPs don't get exposed directly.
INWX because it's a local provider which seems decent.
Was on Google cause I just initially was setting them up there. Moved to cloudflare the day they added dev tlds.
