[Hidden-tech] Domain Registrar - seeking recommendations - who do you like to use?

I own about a dozen domains, all but one currently at Google Domains. The one that is not 
is at Hover, where it has been for many years.  I had some domains previously at GoDaddy, 
but moved them all to Google because I found Google much easier to deal with.  The one at 
Hover started out at Network Solutions nearly 25 years ago, and my experience with NS made 
me appreciate the importance of a reliable and well run registrar.

My needs are pretty simple and I can't claim to be particularly knowledgeable about domain 
management. I find Google's interface to be well documented and easy to work with. I don't 
know what support they provide for someone with large numbers of domains to manage.

When the domain at Hover there comes up for renewal in a few years, I may move it to 
Google too, just to keep everything together, but don't see any pressing reason to do so 
at this time.  I consider both Google and Hover to be highly reliable.
