Because the domain for “Big daddy” was already taken.
GoDaddy was teaching master classes on enshittification before that was even an idea.

GoDaddy has been horrible forever.
Okay, I have no opinion on the whole but European thing… but OVH is garbage.
I’ve never used hetzner but I’ve heard nothing but good things. If I were to go European, that would be my choice.

I left GoDaddy back in the Charles Dickens days of the interwebs. Absolutely, GTFO of there.
