Seems like a weird choice as the primary TLD.
I'd switch it just to reduce the annoying typing hassle and to avoid misspelling.

It's already unusual if I say "My email is givenName@LastName.eu"
And that trips so many persons.
First: I have my own domain
Second: It's not gmail, apple or a local provider
Third: The TLD isnt .de or .com but .eu
