@kev One of the reasons I like Infomaniak is their domain warranty. https://www.infomaniak.com/en/renewal-warranty

@robert that’s interesting. I wonder how sustainable that would be if they’re effectively renewing domains for people.

@kevAny reason why you don't have a Let's Encrypt certificate? 🤔

@kevThen it's strange you have to pay to renew I'd say? :thaenkin:

@kev @RyuKurisu It’s not renewal of SSL/TLS certificates but the domain itself, i.e. registering “fosstodon” at “.org”

@lx exactly. We're talking about the domain registration, not the SSL certificate.@RyuKurisu

@kev Hey it happens. Don't be so hard on yourself. I use calendar reminders. BTW, I spotted a mistake in "I don’t think I received ay alerts about it", change "ay" to "any".

@kev nice short, casual, and entertaining article. I'm glad the issue was resolved. I myself have faced similar issues few times, and Paypal so far have been a great help. I'm just a bit concerned about the day that paypal changes some policy and then I have to modify many many websites that are configured to use my Paypal :ablobcatcoffee:

@kev first thought when I started reading it, “oh great, did he close the card that the registrar bills to” I wasn’t far off

@kev it happens. Part of being a federated system is that mistakes happen. I bet places like fb, etc renew domains for like 20 years at a time to avoid this kind of thing. I know i am increasing mine to multi year renewals.

@kev Really no reason to apologize — it’s a great reminders that the people behind sites like these are exactly that — people, with all their own stuff going on.And now that we all know the expiration date there’s no excuse for everyone here not to remind you. A distributed reminder-of-expiration… notification? Something like that! 😁😁
