    Kagi.com - excellent search engine. Yes, it shouldn’t be needed, but in this day and age it clearly is. Excellent slop filter, and it let’s you downrank and uprank certain sites in your search results. And I just found out you can see the most popular sites for each category, so it’s fast and easy to see which sites probably are and aren’t worth having in your results at all. It makes internet search feel like it did 20 years ago.

    Namecheap.com - It’s where I have my domain names. Mostly because they aren’t godaddy.

    EDIT: Forgot to mention hetzner.

      I’d be careful with Kagi: unfortunately, collecting your payment information and attaching it to an account is directly at odds with maintaining privacy on the internet. I used Kagi for a year and did enjoy the search, but ultimately didn’t renew due to privacy concerns.

      They do have privacy pass, which claims to alleviate some of the privacy concerns, but then you lose all the customization functionality (my main use for Kagi) and there appear to be some issues with it (see this thread https://piefed.social/post/1204472).

    • Netcup (I switched from hetzner a few months ago because I found a better deal)
    • Infomaniak for domain names
    • Purelymail, a really cheap email host (I don’t want to deal with self-hosting it)
    • Exoscale as an object storage provider, which I use for Lemmy and self-hosted Ente (which I chose over Immich because it supports S3 as a storage option, I don’t have enough storage on my netcup server or my homelab for image backups and I’d rather not deal with the stress of a potential loss of data caused by drive failure or something) for my family
    • Threema (not really a service because it’s a one time purchase, but now that we’re shilling I thought I’d include it), which I also managed to get my family to buy.

        I got this in the Threema channel today (just like last year): https://three.ma/slang

        It’s not a particularly difficult easter egg hunt this time, I figured it out in like 5 mins, but I’m not going to spoil it :P
