honkler Jan 24, 2023 View on HN

thomastjeffery Aug 8, 2023 View on HN

I suspect the domain literally cost money...

gesman Dec 6, 2013 View on HN

.IO domains are expensive, they need to cover the cost of it too :)

keehun Jul 11, 2014 View on HN

I wonder how much it cost them to get the domain name.

duud Dec 23, 2020 View on HN

Currently $2/yr extra ($10.99/yr) at Dynadot and most other good registrars

bdcravens May 9, 2013 View on HN

You actually paid $60-100 for a domain name for this?

ddorian43 May 12, 2016 View on HN

That's fucked up. At least with normal domains you pay 10$/year after buying it for whatever amount.
