I recommend registering at https://nic.eu.org if you dont mind having a .eu.org on your domain name, free for life !
my https://lovebyte.eu.org was registered 1.5 years ago and i have had no issues at all
a friend of mine has a name registered around 10 years now and again no issues at all
-– edit —
the only downside is that registration time can vary, sometimes just a few days to go through, sometimes a few weeks or if youre unlucky (like me) it might take a few months but getting a free domain for life was well worth the waiting time
