Thanks for the mention, I'm one of the folks who operates Domainr.
A few years back we added support for all the new gTLDs, and rev'd our suggestion algorithm to somewhat-intelligently include relevant new gTLDs in the search results. It's a great way to discover TLDs.
(according to our TLD page — https://domainr.com/about/tlds — there are 1700+ currently, though many are "brand" TLDs which aren't generally available for registration)

Our Favorites page — https://domainr.com/about/favorites — is also a fun place to see examples of people doing creative work with new TLDs.
I'm ok with .tv and .io domains for specific things.
.com - For selling stuff
.net - Communities / free services
.io - for dev and html5 game stuff
.global,.design, .[other new fancy] - for cool sounding domain and tld pair.
.xyz when it's an alpha, beta or testing project
.com when it's meant for silly or stupid things
