I'm looking to transfer my business domain (.net) from GoBankrupt (GoDaddy) and I'm trying to decide between Porkbun and Cloudflare as my new registrar. I have a separate hosting service, so I mainly need a place for my domain to sit. Which would be the better choice?

I have the opposite view! I would pick Cloudflare every time because I trust their stability—especially for important projects. Sure, they’re a big company, but their services are solid. Just keep in mind that small projects can sometimes be risky since they might not last long.
I decided to go with Porkbun because I wanted to avoid being tied to Cloudflare's nameservers, plus I think competition is good for the industry. So far, my experience has been smooth, and I've heard great things about their reputation.
Honestly, both options are solid. You can't really go wrong with either Porkbun or Cloudflare. It really depends on your specific needs.
I've been using Cloudflare as my registrar and everything has been straightforward with no hiccups. I've heard good things about Porkbun too from colleagues, so either option seems fine to me!
I'm a fan of Porkbun! They offer full DNS control, affordable domains, and no hidden renewal fees, which is a plus. Cloudflare's requirement for using their nameservers can be annoying sometimes since it might block legitimate visitors. For basic registration needs, I’d say Porkbun is the way to go.

That’s a good point! Stability is definitely something to consider.
