I frequently use naked domains as they "read back" better in every site I use them in, removes visual cruft and requires recalling less character space in customers memories.

Other websites I frequent that uses naked domains include:

  - stackoverflow.com
  - github.com
  - twitter.com
  - stripe.com



I'm surprised tha they really don't redirect. Would be interesting to see how they deal with the problems mentioned. As always there are probably different solutions to the same problem.


They do redirect, but it's actually to go from the www to the naked domain. This always leaves the naked domain in the URL bar and is, to me, a clean look.
