| CloudFlare || A company that is known for their DDoS mitigation services and resiliency.

| Epik || An American-based domain registrar that was formerly known for selling domains at extremely low prices and also providing large amounts of other free features. Was in a data breach, in which '''all''' personal information of all epik customers was compromised (allegedly for platforming far-right websites). Also is currently undergoing financial hardship due to not paying back debtors. Was generally considered one of the best out there, now considered one of the worst. || Epik always had some of the best user portals around, as well as having a built-in store to sell your websites and also a very, very nice management portal. Not to mention how cheap domains used to be. Nowadays, all of that is gone. A domain that you could register on porkbun for 1 dollar could be 35 dollars on epik. Especially with a possible bankruptcy (and with them getting new leadership every few months), don't use epik. They've also blocked us from using certain subdomains in the past. || N
