I noticed recently that I tend to subconsciously avoid websites visiting websites using more recent TLDs, like .space, .app, etc.

After some introspection I realized that they feel dodgy and "fake" to me. I was wondering if this was a personal eccentricity or something other people experience.

I publish lots of newsletters containing links to startups, and these TLDs do tend to lead to occasional deliverability issues, with a higher risk of spam classification. So the anti-spam lists and algorithms share your perception of such TLDs being potentially dodgy.

Objectively they aren’t though.
