Yeah sorry, I answered to the wrong comment :-).

But still, I have this feeling that many people who would be competent to own their domain just don't do it. And they could give an email to their family, too. And help friends setup theirs.

I'm not completely sure that the issue is "it's too hard". To me, it's like password managers. Sure, it's too hard for some people. But most people just can't be arsed to use a password manager, though they would be totally competent.

"It's too hard" is, in my experience, often an excuse to be lazy.
