Hi! Thinking about registering a new domain for homelab setup. Not quite sure which registrar to go with but have heard good things about Porkbun here on lemmy. But, do people fill in their actual real name, and details for these sorta things? Geuninly curious, don’t want to end up on bad terms with a company. But on the other hand im just going to use this for my homelab and dont see the “need” to give away my details for this sorta thing.

Let me know how you guys do it :)

.ch domains come with domain privacy by default. Since whois entries don’t include personal information. Also whois request are only doable through the official registry and only reveal the registrar and technical information and not personal ones.
