- On a 4K monitor the menu is still hidden and the user has to explicitly click on those shitty lines.
- gandi.net
- Every action requires at least 2 redirections between different subdomains? (id.gandi.net then back? wtf?)
- Low contrast grey font. Look at gandi.net
- kek at that "Your Selection" row: Winner of the: "Most noticeable interactive UI element 2017" award.
- using custom fonts for icons and without text
Jackson Martinez
Kind of like Holla Forums
Jonathan Myers
More like Internet Explorer since at least IE7.
Mason Sullivan
wtf is this shill thread.
Jaxson Ward
it works even with disabled JS and I didn't see any difference vs. JS enabled
Evan Perry
Try scrolling with middle click.
Cameron Perez
This pissed me off enough to email them.
MOBILE FIRST AND REACT! PAJEET YES.
Here's what I have so far, maybe we can add to it? Any suggestions welcome:
I don't understand how this website happened.
The title and logo don't navigate to the home page
Menu's are hidden, even on a fullscreen desktop
Hamburger menus suck and decrease navigation, even on mobile devices

Ditching "no bullshit" with "domains made simple" sounds like a decision of someone who attended a 2 hour marketing seminar
Where are my filters? Why is everything so huge on desktop?
I am here to buy domain names, I want to sort them, see more than 20 I don't want to scroll and press "see more" 100 times, I want regions.
This is a clear regression and if this ever gets out of beta it will launch out of the gates with an outdated and confusing design.
The attached image should be a good enough argument, in what world are no suggestions better?
Logan Barnes
99% of people who say "no bullshit" are actually just faggots who actually indeed love to eat bullshit all day long.

Bootstrap is the sharing-infected-needles-and discarding-them-on-playgrounds of web design.
Henry Bennett
Why use Gandhi when namecheap and namesilo exist?
Aaron Stewart
why use namesilo or namecheap when internet.bs exists
Leo Thompson
ok then.a
Ryan Torres
Fuck, I actually meant to say internet.bs. not namecheap.
Namecheap doesn't even have free whois privacy beyond year 1.
Grayson Rodriguez
If you want to own the domain, there is no such a thing as whois privacy.
Whois privacy means that someone else owns the domain, and you just use it.
Gandi is the only domain seller which explains this carefully.
Btw if you take terms of services seriously, you can't even issue ssl certificates for these "whois privacy protected" domain, because you don't own them. Even Let's Encrypt has this clause in their ToS.
namecheap
domainsilo
thanks but not supporting any company which promotes this kind of shit
Noah Phillips
They're also paying the maintenance of DNS servers, tho.
Logan Flores
I still prefer online.net
it's cheaper.
Gabriel Smith
fucking plebs

New design direction? it may not be bullshit, but it is definitely shit.
Quote from news.gandi.net
I don't see how this "secondary domain name market" differs from domain squatting.
So "hamburger menu" it is. Thank you for those articles, I didn't know how to call that thing. Using McDonald's webpage to make a point is hilarious.
Am I the only one having trouble to understand these comments? What is his point? And how does he know other user's DNS settings?
Christian Bell
They are? I thought the trendy thing to do was pay some guy $30 to tell .com to add an NS record or 2 pointing to your own servers or the ones of your web hoster.
great, so only you and this random ass registrar i never heard of till today know this. why the fuck do you want to "own" a domain? just move your bullshit to another place if it gets jacked. why are you even buying a TLD? If this is for work, i.e if you're making some marketing page or some shit, it literally doesn't matter what you use because your site is retarded garbage in the first place.
This bullshit and anything about DNS in general pisses me right off. I could write a 1000 page essay explaining how cancerous and degenerate the DNS system is. DNS is fucking smaller than the web and yet it still somehow has more retards and idiocy associated with it. Just after reading some stuff for a minute right now I saw people affirming these things as if they make any sense:
Samuel Wood
Which of these do I get? All seem like good choices to make the next KnowYourMeme to sucker in redditors.
Xavier Rivera
Don't get me wrong, DNS is one of the most jewed aspects of the Internet, I completely agree, but it's not just "updating some record".
Brody Sanders
There are alternatives such as NameCoin.
Yes it is. Server maintenance is cheap, it's just that it has to be accepted by the people around it.
Jeremiah Jones
Registrars are a fucking scam. It costs absolutely nothing to run. TLD operators just roll in mountains of cash for their monopoly.
If you don't believe me, then ask yourself how OpenNIC can operate with nothing more than a bunch of nerds with a hobby and a few vpses
I know that's in prison cigarettes, but that's still gotta be utterly insane.
Elijah Allen
Finally a touch friendly interface, it is a really nice upgrade. Like Gnome3.

A tip for those who got served by this beta site when visiting gandi.net : you can access the usable one via v4.gandi.net
How is it mobile first!? The links/buttons are only visible with the a:hover effect, so you need a mouse...
