Does the average Internet user really care about the top level domain? It's rare for me to type in a domain name (or write it with a pen and paper), and this would be if I saw a URL printed on some document or sign (such as a poster or book jacket). People sending messages to Fastmail.fm addresses didn't think the recipients were in Federated States of Micronesia. The only .xyz URL I know of is abc.xyz (the new Alphabet, holding company of Google).
So I have nothing against. .xyz, but don't think it will be a big draw for most companies or organizations. It's just another change for domain resellers to make a buck.
