I noticed Porkbun was VERY fast to confiscate and auction off a domain I decided to drop. Obviously Porkbun is not a company I want to do business with in the future, but I was kind of curious if the dropped names were getting any action. I found https://porkbun.com/marketplace and the name isn't listed there, so I'm wondering where this company auctions off the domains that they snatch from their loyal customers?

Porkbun names go to Godaddy

Depending on the TLD, they may go to Dynadot or GoDaddy for auction (mostly GoDaddy at this time). We start sending domains to auction at 21 days past expiration. You have until 30 days past expiration to renew your domains. This is all pretty standard industry wide and is by no means "VERY fast to confiscate". Anyhoo, here's a KB article that explains things in more detail: https://kb.porkbun.com/article/37-what-happens-after-a-domain-expires
