I pulled the latest .com zone snapshot (updated Feb 22, 2026) and analyzed 160M active domains across 2,895 registrars, focusing on creation/expiration/update dates plus nameserver infrastructure. The report includes year-by-year growth, name-length saturation, registrar concentration, and NS-based classification, plus “new” cuts like an 18-month expiration forecast, DNS update recency, registrar portfolio vintage, and day-of-week registration patterns.

Pretty! What tech is behind it ?

So you build your own Internet-scale search engine, that's what you're saying?!

What stack do you use? How much data is in your indexes ?

Useful! Subscribed!

Did you have iOS development experience before ?

So, after building this app with Claude - what is your feedback on that? What can be improved/done differently? Could you please share any tips/hints on how to make development of iOS app with Claude easier/better?

What are some use cases for this tool? Can it be used in integration tests as a part of CI/CD pipeline?

Sounds useful!

How do you handle data privacy concerns?

Wow, I always wanted such tool!

What is your technical stack? Do you build editor from scratch or do you use something as a baseline ?

iryndinon Ask HN: What are you working on? (February 2026)

Wow, that is pretty cool! Do you run lab tests yourself, or have to engage a certified lab instead? How does that all work ?

What are advantages compared to Docker/Apple containers/VMs like Virtual Box?

iryndinon Ask HN: What are you working on? (February 2026)

I’m continuing to work on AllZonefiles.io — a domain-data hub that aggregates and serves large-scale zone files. Right now it covers ~354M domains across 1,575 zones, including ~114M domains from 317 ccTLDs, which turned out to be the hardest part operationally.

The next step is an extended dataset parsed from WHOIS: create/expire/update timestamps, NS records, and IANA registrar info. Stack is fairly boring on purpose: Go, bare-metal Linux, PostgreSQL, Bootstrap 5. The motivation is to make downloading and keeping the most complete domain lists possible automated and predictable, without manual registry workflows or fragmented sources.

That's fair. Thank you for pointing me out on this. Let me think what can I do here to provide such experience for users. Appreciate you shared your opinion!

iryndinon Show HN: I built a search engine for all domains on the internet

Sign-in is free is costs you nothing.

But I'll think on providing access to the domain search engine (limited dataset, may be) to anyone without asking registration. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, really appreciate that!!!

iryndinon Show HN: I built a search engine for all domains on the internet

Make sense, thanks for sharing! I've thought about that and have this in my plans.

> How hard it was to get access to those daily updated zone files?

Some are easy, some are harder. Few months ago I've built and launched zone file data provider (https://allzonefiles.io) that DomainExplorer uses. Having that, accessing zone files is fairly easy.

Good suggestion, thank you! Will work on that!

Sounds cool!

I also had an idea that it would be good to have a "what-if" product that could simulate financial aspects of life.

Do you have a demo?
