.xyz is one of the most popular TLDs for crypto and web3, but it has a horrible email spam reputation and some gateways blacklist the entire TLD. With the exception of a16z, VCs aren't funding these businesses much anymore, either.

The biggest user might be block.xyz.

.io, .co, and .ai are still the most popular alternative TLDs for startups.

is there a good link for this ranking? i'm curious as to 4th place and below too. what position does .app or .tech or .cloud come, etc.

you can lookup domain count for TLDs here https://deployment.rdap.org/ (sorting works)
