Namecheap is still reasonably cost competitive. I use them for a few domains I own and haven’t had any major issues and found the price closer to other well known competitors.
I alway compare prices at domcomp.com Over the time, most of my 15 domains (mixed tlds, .com .net .us .xyz .in etc) got moved over to cloudflare & dynadot, with them both having cheaper renewals.
Until you try to put a single NS record on your domain. Then you have to cough up the dough for a business plan. Utterly laughable and why I moved off Cloudflare for my domains. NS records are free on Namecheap and Porkbun.
