What do you guys think about all these new domains like .xyz etc. Do you use them or do you stick to .com? Are they bad for SEO or no difference?

Regarding New gTLDs such as .xyz, they have attracted a lot of attention in recent years, especially in terms of innovation and usability, and I think it's up to you to decide whether or not to use a new domain name.
Occasions to use .xyz: If your brand aims for an innovative, technological, creative or avant-garde image, .xyz is a good choice. It's cheap, simple and helps you stand out.
Stick with .com for occasions: If your brand needs to build long-term trust, widespread awareness, especially in traditional industries, .com is the safer choice.

When it comes to Search Engine Optimization (SEO), the domain suffix itself does not have a significant direct impact on SEO. example.xyz and example.com's ranking performance is determined by your website content, keyword optimization, outbound linking, user experience, and other factors, not just the domain suffix.

I didn't realize the reputation of .xyz extensions has improved that significantly. They were best known as being used by spammers.
