Yeah, this one affects where I was hosting my domains.

Any recommendations on what to do? Should I try transferring now? Would you just wait it out and see what happens?

I have another domain with NameCheap, they seem ok and I'll probably transfer over to them. Better to make a little extra work for myself than wait for some Google/Squarspace to run me through a ringer.

Thank you, I'll have to check them out. And yes, that's what I worry of, there is a specific reason I chose a provider, and having another one chosen for me, when we don't even know what level of UI/service/features they will provide is pretty annoying.

I transferred 2 domains to NameCheap and the whole process took less than 2 hrs from first click to done. I messed up my wildcard+DDNS but that wasn't NameCheap's fault and only took a few min to sort out.
