If every level is a root, then the word root means nothing. I guess you could say that the root servers point to the tld root servers that point to your domain's root servers. But then root server just means dns server.
I never mentioned registrars, only registries.
Nobody here is on a regisrar that manages the TLD root servers.
I have a .is domain. For .is and some of the other country code tlds, you contract directly with the entity managing the TLD and its servers.
Are you secretly the admin of archive.is? He's made accounts on here before but they were all temporary. I want to believe he has an account that has been here a long time.
No, I live on an island, and is is a usps acceptable abbreviation for island ... I was trying to convince my spouse to leave yahoo mail for mail hosted on one of our domains by getting a domain that's less out there than enslaves.us, so I have islandname.is (well not literally that).
Tldr, a cool domain name isn't enough to make a switch happen.
