Edit, Solved in comments 👌

I want to buy a domain name for personal usage (reverse proxy, selfhosting serivces). I’ll probably go with a general purpose .net or my country specifc one. I am based in Northern Europe.

  • Does it matter based on where I am located where the domain is registered?
  • Any recommendations for domain registrars in that regard?

Thanks

    Two important aspects:

    Location determines how easy some government’s ‘services’ can access that provider’s data, and change them if they like to.

    Location determines how easy some business can convince some cheap court to take down your domain.
