I'm looking to register a new domain but hate how pricing is $0.01 first year, $1M renewal. It doesn't seem like a deal if it's going to cost so much to renew.

Are there any transparent registrars or any tools that will give you a cost over 3 years or something?

I'll be honest, I did Google it but you'll never guess what the top hit was. I didn't click. I'm putting this here in a small attempt to transfer some knowledge to the fediverse.

You mentioned this elsewhere, but for those who don't know xyz 1.111B class are incredibly cheap numerical xyz domains.

Google domains served me well before Google decided to kill it.... oh well....

That's awesome! I just snatched my phone numbers (phone numbers are 8 digits in my country) as domains.
