High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
Namecheap,
Google Domains,
GoDaddy,
Domain.com,
Dynadot potentially.
A lot of people offer registration. I'm not sure it's a field you should limit to checkboxes, a text field is more appropriate.
Forbes has a list from October 2021 not sure if this could be useful https://www.forbes.com/advisor/business/software/best-domain-registrar/
Namecheap
Domain.com
Google Domains
Dreamhost
Hover
GoDaddy
Bluehost
Hostgator
Network Solutions
BuyDomains
Could it be possible to have a dropdown list if a checklist would be too lengthy?

Interacting heavily with the domain space around this community, this is a great idea, but here are my most common registrars:
NameCheap - Easily #1 throughout this community
GoDaddy
Name.com
PorkBun
Gandi
101Domain
HostGator
BlueHost
ChannelIslandHosting (Specifically for .gg domains)
As Ally mentioned, if there was a solution for adding in whois information, it would eliminate the need for specified registrars and display it through that lookup.
I propose a searchable dropdown, in addition to the "other" option. If the other option is used frequently for a certain registrar, then it can be added to the dropdown. A dropdown is likely way better than just boxes since it allows essentially infinite registrars without clutter.
And in regards to what it should start with, why bother looking at outside sources for the "top X" registrars? They're often just paid advertisements, or your big overpriced companies. How many people here actually use them? With the exception of Namecheap, I rarely see people using big registrars. People here, for obvious reasons, tend to use the cheapest registrars. Ones like Porkbun, Namecheap, and potentially soon - Cloudflare

Yeah just do the top 10. Everyone I know just uses GoDaddy and Namecheap since they have so many features alongside the domains. Hosting, mail, SSL etc.
i've seen only a handful of people on here use godaddy. this is mcm, home of the broke. we use what's cheap not what has pointless features
