I got some domain names to register and every place Im looking at is asking me to upload a photo id because I live in a dystopian hellscape.... Anyway, I figured I'd ask around here and the selfhosted communities for some recommendations on privacy respecting registrars. I appreciate yall!

EDIT: Thanks friends, I ended up going with njalla. I really appreciate the suggestions. Stay safe out there.

They're not actually a domain registrar, and you do not really own the domain.

We're not actually a domain name registration service, we're a customer to these. We sit in between the domain name registration service and you, acting as a privacy shield.
