I'm curious if this still feels true?

From my perspective, there's been an explosion of TLDs over the past decade and ".com" feels like less of a given than it was prior. I've got docs.rs and twitch.tv open right now and I keep thinking about how poignant the domain brr.fyi is for a blog about cold weather.

I'm trying to decide if there's actually a change occurring here, or if I'm just biased because it's a lot easier, and cheaper, to find a short, trendy domain name when I allow myself to consider non-traditional TLDs.
