I transferred 6 domains to porkbun and it was about 2 days to get the code and 5 days to transfer. Mostly painless, but DNS records were not copied over. I tried to see if I could manually copy them over in advance, but I got an error with porkbun. I probably didn't know how to do it correctly, but I needed up with a couple minutes of downtime. I don't remember having to do anything when I went from namecheap to google, but that was a while ago.

I'm migrating to Cloudflare

You can setup alternative nameservers first, they clone current DNS settings, then you update nameservers. Do the transfer after.

This worked while they were at Google Domains and about to be transfered. Haven't tried with squarespace yet, but it ought to work

Thanks, I will try that next time I have to migrate.
