For some domains like .io, it's possible and convenient to buy domains from the TLD registrar directly [1]. No need to involve a reseller in the middle.

Otherwise I like EuroDNS [2]. They have decent service and a pretty good web UI overall, compared to some of the other companies.

What are the other "domain[s] like .io"?
Many of the odd national ones like .to, .as, .ac, .sh ...

These are country codes where the state that controls the land doesn't have an interest in managing the domain, so it's been sold to a 3rd party company.
