Same frustration, just admintax of switching accounts / transferring domain registrations. I had a few more domains that hasn't transfered to Squarespace yet, so I just transferred them to Porkbun.

I'm in the process of transferring a couple from Squarespace to Porkbun as well. I'll document as I have more info. Already the request a transfer code from Squarespace is suboptimal, they send it to you by email and it can take up to 24 hours.

Google Domains I just click "Unlock domain" then "Get Transfer Code" and it showed it to me right there, no waiting.

Squarespace is a content hosting service (paid) that provides services such as blogging and domain hosting https://indieweb.org/SquareSpace

Squarespace used OAuth with my Gmail account so getting into the new account was easy at least

I was concerned about the prices going up too. Looks like Squarespace normally is $20/year/domain, Google Domains was $12. It looks like the recurring billing is still $12 in Squarespace though, for now.

Took about 2 hours to get the transfer code from Squarespace. Not awful, though would be nice if they just had it in the domain management section of your account.
