Edit, Solved in comments 👌

I want to buy a domain name for personal usage (reverse proxy, selfhosting serivces). I’ll probably go with a general purpose .net or my country specifc one. I am based in Northern Europe.

  • Does it matter based on where I am located where the domain is registered?
  • Any recommendations for domain registrars in that regard?

Thanks

    while I appreciate everyone naming their favorite companies, this is the only real answer to the question. It doesn’t matter at all which registrar you use, it’s about brand recognition, support, add-on services, and cost.

    [source: friend founded his own (now defunct) registrar and I would help out. Even when a registrar goes out of business there’s no real risk, as there are plans in place to hand off customers to other sites]
