I have quite a few domains. Until recently, they were hosted on Google Domains, which I was happy with. Today, I moved all of them to Dreamhost, which is the service on which I host this site.
I moved them because apparently Squarespace, against my wishes and will, took over management of my domains and decided they were going to host them. I guess they bought them from google or something.
No, they’re not going to host my domains.
I don’t have anything conceptually against Squarespace. In that, while they’re pretty much marketing to the lowest common denominator (people who want a website and don’t really want to do the work) they haven’t done anything personal to me.
But I don’t trust them, and I don’t want to be their customer.
These days, it’s far too easy to get cancelled for real or imagined slights against anyone currently deemed at the moment to being beyond reproach. Dreamhost has been pretty good about leaving me be to do my thing. I don’t trust Squarespace to do the same.
So I’m not going to be their customer.
Bye, squarespace. It’s been fun, I guess, even though I really didn’t want anything to do with you in the first place.
