It might just be me, but I actually do have a slight negative feeling toward .com domains. For me, the ranking is:
1) .edu
2) .org
3) .net; the regional TLD of the country the website is actually associated with (.fr, .de, …)
4) Domain hacks (.me for a personal site, …); Cutesy, unprofessional, generic TLDs like .space
5) .com; .gov; Tech startup-type stuff (.io, .app)
6) Weird TLDs with an advertising / commercial purpose (.flights, .financial, .ai, …)
7) Spammy TLDs like .ml, .xyz, .biz
