When I used to run my own email, .top and .xyz received an automatic -10 on spam evaluation. I can't remember a single legitimate website that I actually used and would have had an account on from these TLDs; all I ever saw was spam.
I see a lot of personal blogs that use .xyz here on HN.
I use .XYZ because it was pretty cheap when I bought it
I do too, aesthetically it's great. Unfortunately the rise in phishing from xyz domains means if you use it to send email your deliverability is likely to suck.
I use .xyz because I have a very common first and last name, and nearly all of the permutations of them were taken on .net, .com, .org, and .us; .xyz seems to price based on how desirable they think the name is, so I still couldn't get $FIRST-$LAST.xyz for a reasonable price, but I got something close.
I thought the same, out of the 5 domains listed, I'm not sure I have used any legitimate website using them, so I might as well block them entirely
I hope this sentiment isn't too widespread... I use .xyz for my personal blog and primary email :shrug:
Similar for my self hosted email, though I just reject in postfix for about 30 of the cheap/meme tld's.
