A single domain helps so much, regardless of what you have planned. I basically use mine just as bookmarks. There's a dedicated subdomain for dynamic DNS. I make use of SRV records. Costs me like 6 bucks a year. You don't need huge ambitions or dreams for a domain name to make sense.
It’s just a joke reference to some people who hold onto a domain specifically for their pet project that they aren’t actively pursuing. I’m sure it doesn’t apply to everyone
We're really consuming them at an alarming rate. Soon, the only affordable ones will have either 20+ characters, a sus TLD, or just be a nonsensical string nobody can pronounce.
I got three so far. Bought my first one as motivational commitment for a project, then came the second... And the third... And it'd be cool if I had a fourth one...
They’re for a project I swear
I totally haven’t renewed them year after year without any movement on that project
I.... Feel called out

My longest "I'll use that domain soon" was 1 1/2 years. I'm a lightweight.
I got my username because it was about £11 for 2 years, and by buying it through cloudflare I get tones of ways to access the stuff I self host.
At some point I plan on setting up a personal website.
Don’t ask, not because it’s rude but because they honestly lost count years ago.

The weird TLDs will just be normalised
I sure hope so. Half of the Fediverse uses them. We don't want people thinking "no way I'm clicking sh.itjust.works"
They're my emotional support domains
I put a hanging ball sack on mine. It makes me feel tough and special.
I have zero, but within a few years, it may be one...
That's funny, I was just looking up registering my first domain name for a project this morning.
Zero, cuz they cost money and I don't earn my salary in USD
And how many domain registers they have ;-;
Moving everything to one registrar was a pain but well worth it.
Literally just bought 1 this month

Actually, gimme a couple minutes
whoisearth.com - had for 20+ years. Personal sandbox
ifuckswithit.com
ifuckswiththat.com - both just general blogs
"Surname".com - I get my personal email and my kids all setup there
How did you setup your emai?
I use dreamhost and it's just normal IMAP.
None because I use free ones.
Freedns is amazing. You can take a public one and have as many subdomains as you want. Even nested.
This.domain.is.also.possible.mooo.com
Just one for me… for now.
For now, just 4...
1 with many subdomains. But I intend to invest in a second one with my legal name, for more professional purposes.
I have like 11...
Yeah I lost count a while ago. It’s probably around 20, maybe less.
Like 1
Heh, 18. Got some cool ones too
Or how many alt accounts a Lemming has. 👀
Like two dozen or more. I'm using exactly one for anything.
Zero duckdns has me covered
