          In general, no, you will not be provided services at no cost. If you want to go back to the post office, they will require you to buy stamps.

      Look into infomaniak (yes, I know, silly name), but its a serious service and very up to par with Google Suite.

          I would ask "was it this? https://beehaw.org/comment/4363681 "

          because I found it in my notes by its website preview from when I saved it, but it seems someone deleted something and lemmy shit the bed again, and you dont have have a normal descriptive link like reddit does but only an internal database ID that does not refer to anything anymore…

          the post title was “is this normal for domain name registrars to do.”, and something that infomaniak did
