> About six months ago, I realized that it was probably time to get away from Gandi as a registrar and also SSL provider (reseller).

I've recently heard similar takes about Gandi but I am out of the loop, can someone explain the controversy? Currently using it for one of my domains and I'd like to know more.

EDIT: tried googling but results are about people whose name is either Gandi or Ghandi, could not find much about Gandi the company.

I’m seeing a lot about price hikes, new service charges, and bad customer service since the acquisition. I noticed the price hike with one of my domains through them, I paid it but was close to reconsidering. Thinking I’ll try transferring it now.

		I see, I hadn't noticed because back when I got my domain I paid for a multi-year offer. Thanks for that, when my paid-for period ends I will look into alternatives.
