“Whaddya mean I can’t get lo mein and a black and white cookie delivered at 4AM? I thought this was a city???”

I'll add to the chorus. This happened to me as well. A domain I'd paid $20k for up in smoke. That's more than a decade ago, and I'm still mad about it. Especially since the person they transferred it to is just squatting on it.

I don't have a good answer for you. I currently have all my domains on Network Solutions, but I hate them, too. Wish I could say better.
I'm currently reading Frank Herbert's "Dune" for the first time.
I was struck by this passage. It comes right after the Reverend Mother has tested Paul Atreides. She is talking with him.
"𝗢𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺."
How apropos seventy years later.

She was a good cat, and you gave her a good life.
Dinner just popped into the oven. Good luck to us all.

Is that the Nama?

You are the queen of the oceanic pun.

This is the kind of pun I'd expect from @skinnylatte
But it's so apt. I'm using this one.
From my happy folder.

I was homeless for a while. It was a long time ago, but it never leaves me.
To register for some things, you have to prove you're a local resident. Usually they require a utility bill or a bank statement with a local address. Homeless people don't have that.
Not a "resident" of this county? Not eligible for services.
There's much, much more, but I don't want to dilute your post.

We're 90 minutes south, in Rochester. I'll check with you closer to October, and if we're in-country, we'll drive up and snack to oblivion.
The Trevor Project continues to answer calls and texts. If you or any LGBTQ+ person is in crisis, they are ready to listen and they are 100% free of any cost. Times are tough. Help is available for you.

Nice. Was that on your coast hike?
Saskatchewan and Alberta are on fire, and that air is curling around our way.
@skinnylatte Funny you should share that right after I posted this:
