Can I …?
⚠️ This is a long post. If your client has issues with it try viewing it on the web.
We all know and love Can I Use? And over the years I stumbled upon a few other useful tools with a Can I …? type of name. So I decided to see what’s out there.
So I downloaded all* zone files from ICANN, as one does. Found all the domains that start with `cani` and here’s what I found.
* Well, not exactly all. Some GTLD admins are a bit cagy or require too much data to get access. But I’ve got all the popular ones and then some.
