I want to get some domains for selfhosted stuff, but I’d like to use a registrar that I won’t regret doing business with later, both in terms of ethics and potential customer service stuff. Who do y’all like most?

Namecheap. Avoid Dynadot.
Just curious. Why should dynadot be avoid?
I can only speak from personal experience but for me they jacked up the price significantly after year one and then sent my domain straight to auction after I decided not to pay. I respect that there are reseller-focused providers out there but they aren’t for me.
On the other hand, I’ve had nothing but quality service from namecheap for the best part of a decade.
I use namesilo for everything but my .au domains.
Namesilo is quite good - cheap & been using it for 5 years now (coming from namecheap)

Gandi massively increased their prices 2 years ago.
I was with Namecheap for years, and they’re totally fine. I am now with Cloudflare because they’re a bit cheaper and their API is well supported in various tools, and they also seem fine.
Got acquired and rised price.
