@iamthefij said in .io, or not .io, is that even a question ?:
Still, branding is powerful and rebranding something is a huge risk. I wouldn't recommend Cloudron attempt it.
But the .io domain is not part of the Cloudron brand imho (it's not like it's in the logo or anything).
TBH I think if all existing Cloudron.io domains just seamlessly 301 redirected to another TLD I doubt many people would even notice.
I don't personally think it's a huge deal. But some people are quite passionate about it and do think it is a big deal, associated as it is with colonialism.
Personally if I were the owner of a business with a .io domain I think I probably would change it, much like draw.io did (despite the fact they DO have it as part of the their brand).
