Maybe I’m missing something, but why would someone use this for domain registration? There are already a lot of reputable registrars with lower prices. Curious what the main advantage is.


Every new idea starts small. The prices will keep going down as we are able to register directly with the nic's, so it should be on par sooner or later with all the big ones. Also going to try and have it populate all the expired/dropping from all the providers so its easy to bid on a domain if its dropping on say dropcatch, dynadot, etc.


That's a long way of saying nothing makes us stand out from our competitors.

Especially since you're not even a registrar. You're just a middleman, like Njalla... Therefore, for every domain we register with you, you are the owner, not us.

> We register and manage domain names on your behalf through Dynadot


Sure. And if I follow your logic, only godaddy should be the only registrar that exists. No need for competition, diffrent ux, diffrent domains, etc.


> And if I follow your logic, only godaddy should be the only registrar that exists

No.


Njalla states in their terms that the domain is registered under their name. Domains registered under NS6 are in fact registered under your name, not NS6. Therefor making you the owner of them. Since that's how ICANN rules work.

"We register and manage domain names on your behalf through Dynadot, an ICANN-accredited registrar."

means we are acting as a registration service or reseller. In practice:

Dynadot is the ICANN-accredited registrar. NS6 is facilitating the registration and managing it for you. You are the registrant if your name (or your company) is listed in the registrant contact information.

Namecheap for example, started this way instead of using dynadot, used enom, https://forumweb.hosting/14401-is-namecheap-com-an-enom-rese...

or in short; Yes.


This is a nice idea. I keep seeing agent tools that focus on the coding part, but the boring task dispatch and handoff layer is where I actually lose time.


Nice idea. I like that you can preview with your own text before downloading, that is usually the annoying part when picking fonts.


I didn’t know domain tools were still a thing, but this looks great. One small suggestion: the home hero could be shorter so the lookup input is visible sooner.


Thanks! You're absolutely right, I've shortened the hero


I like this. Small tools inside the workflow feel much more useful than separate productivity apps I have to remember to open.


I ended up building a vs-code/IDE style workflow for claude that has a "file browser" of CC sessions in the left column, sorted by repo, and then terminal in the right column, and then I've been tacking features like this onto it


Fantastic! You should open source it


Here you go. The green bar is the claude code 5 min cache expiry countdown timer (anthropic charges a fraction of cached context, I forget something like 10 or 30% of the normal price, but the cache is only 5 min for most users, 1 hr for enterprise/premium)

It's not amazing code but it's tooling that works for me.


Wooo that's so cool... it seems to be private?


whoops sorry, I just made it public. long holiday weekend


Me too. Also it’s good to get decent reports that can be used for other things. For example the logs help me fill in my time sheets. Also it forces me to take breaks


Nice idea. I can see this being useful before refactors, especially when the duplication is semantic rather than copy paste.


I like the idea. Google Takeout works, but a focused app that helps you actually find and recover old photos could still be useful.


Thanks!

Yes, use Google Takeout if you want a full account archive. It's a pain if you just want to get your photos, though.

You have to deal with huge .mbox files, download gigabytes of unnecessary text, and sometimes you have to wait days for the export.

The short version is that Mail Memories lets you get the images you want instead of an all-or-nothing data dump.


Nice niche archive. I always like seeing old magazines made searchable instead of just sitting in scans somewhere.


Really nice project. I wonder if discovery could be partly automated by crawling for worker owned or co op signals, then leaving the final verification to humans.


This is the kind of niche project that makes Show HN fun.
