Porkbun for me. I tried using CF's domain service and at least at that time it was hard for me to tell head from the tail on their interface. Hope that has changed. (I just wanted to distribute my domains between the two serices, otherwise Porkbun is fine as it is).
I’ve got some domains in Cloudflare and some in Porkbun. No issues yet. I also like how straightforward Porkbun is while still supporting API automation and team accounts.
Domain names aren't the money maker for Cloudflare. Having the domain with them so that you'll eventually use them for other things is. That's why everything is at cost.
It's a great place to keep your domain names. Beyond that is up to you.
Wanted to dog pile on this - Godaddy gave away my entire account back when I was younger. I lost lots of domains, including my website, "strategywiki.org".

I could see Cloudflare randomly deciding that my single-employee company domain name needs an enterprise plan in a few years from now.

Right, their main money maker is $150k enterprise plans you gave them a large amount of leverage to declare you suddenly require.

Looks like I'll be transitioning off of Namecheap now too.
You clearly gave your partners more access than necessary and the loss the result of your own foolishness.
