I have a few with my name in that're just parked :)
Recently purchased thisisweerd.co.uk , and thisisweird.co.uk ... to make use of my awesome Dutch name! Haha. Will be using it as my portfolio moving forward - just need to rebuild it :)

Native Android developer/Consultant for Appwise, I work on custom projects for clients.
PHP/JS (web) developer in my freetime. Trying to keep learning in an ever changing tech world.
It took me 3 months to acquire it, owner didn't want to sell and then let it expire, but I am now the proud owner of "isphpdead.com".
I haven't done anything with it yet but I was thinking to make something like Is Ruby Dead?
I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
Haha, good question! I actually let a couple expire recently, which felt good. However, I'm still holding onto healthier.dev.
I've got some vague notion of an open-source project where developers help each other to get healthier. Doubt anything will come of it but it's an idea that interests me!
alexlab.me => My personal site javascript-quiz.com/ => A PWA site with quiz about JS, great to learn and train for a job on culture
Unfinished projects: itsfermenting.com => Should be a blog about fermentation and cooking instruos.com/ => A website for online courses with part of a price that goes to charities
The first one I've owned since I was 17. Still under a 10 year registration until 2023. That's how long I have to come up with an idea for it. π
I used to have the .io of the second one, but those are expensive. It was just cool from a quantum theory perspective: input/output. Collapse wavefunction. Thought it'd be cool for some sort of startup incubator. Something about creativity finding success. βοΈ
Haha, I feel your pain. I just let a 13 year old domain expire: beunequaled.com
With the best will in the world, I just couldn't come up with a good purpose for it. It's a shame because originally it had pretty good traffic when it first launched but for about 10 years it was effectively dead. Decided to give up on it and focus on more realistic projects...
yournextgreatemployee.com [been sitting on it for a few years, kind of hoped I'd sell it or put it to better use by now - still waiting for the right idea or chance to sell]
dev/IoT advocate.
my neurotransmitters enjoy: foodie, penguins, and esoterica (the arts, oddities, antiques).
my demons have funny names: AuDHD/MDD/GAD/cPTSD
I have fantastic indecision when it comes to domains so I keep hopping across the TLD spectrum. I first bought msfjarvis.me, got tired of it and then let it expire. Then moved on to msfjarvis.website for a brief period, finally settling on msfjarvis.dev. I still own msfjarvis.website to redirect people to the new domain, and it still gets about ~10% of the hits my .dev domain does so clearly the renewal was a smart choice...
I had this horrible habit of buying a domain name every time I had an idea for something at 2am. Now I am waiting for them all to expire.
I am happy I stopped doing this, now I put things as a subdomain and don't buy a proper domain until I have some sort of MVP and at least 1 user that I don't personally know. :)

polvcode.dev but I stopped writing for while.
zhquiz.cc -- Chinese quizzing app
rep2recall.net -- A spaced repetition app (SRS), with OpenAPI, but if people posted too much content, it might be hard to maintain.
So many! Some with old orphaned projects. Hit me up if you want to build something with any of these:
amitpatel.xyz > My personal blog powered by Jekyll
sellerioapp.com > Work in progress app for marketplace sellers to monitor sales and stock
goras.org > Blog in Gujarati(a vernacular language of india) powered by jeky to post inspirational stories from books, magazines, newspaper s etc
