Hi, I'm thinking of building a personal website about tech, privacy, open source, etc. Any recommendations about where can I buy domain? .com is taken, but everything else is not. Shuld I take .tech (few dolars more expensive) or something more basic?

Have you checked if this impacts the availability on your sites from Tor? While on Tor, I'm really fed up of Cloudflare "security pages" blocking me away from sites that are served via them. I don't trust they treat DNS differently.

That’s a security feature the owner sets. Your beef is with the website trying to improve their security and the malicious actors that warrant that, cloudflare just provides the tools.

From a privacy standpoint, cloudflare dns protects your sites very well. They will proxy requests so you don’t have to reveal your IPs, and provide a lot of security tools for free. Even without registering your domain there its a great option for DNS.
