Does using nxtlvl.dot hurt my Google rankings?
No. Google has stated that new top-level domains carry no inherent ranking advantage or disadvantage, so nxtlvl.dot competes on the same signals as any .com. Focus your SEO effort for nxtlvl.dot on content, page speed, and backlinks rather than the extension itself.
