@melvynx NameCheap works fine for most of my projects. What problems have you encountered which using it.
Hari Prasad (@booleanbeyondIN) reported 37 seconds ago
@CiCorpAfrica @CiCorpAfrica got it. Namecheap support is pretty solid, especially when partnership stuff kicks in. Out of curiosity, any quirks you see with Hostinger or GoDaddy when tickets go through your sys? Just want to know what to avoid next time.
Jay Khatri (@JaykhatriDev) reported 3 minutes ago
@AlfinCodes I mostly use namecheap as it provides renewal domains at cheaper rates, but go daddy offer 24/7 phone +chat support.

Why is everyone saying @Namecheap is bad? Used them for a decade at this point and have no complaints.

@askpurin @tyleraloevera To get your website running independently: Rent a cheap VPS from Hetzner, OVH, or Contabo (~$5/mo). Install Ubuntu, then Nginx + your stack (Node/PHP/Python/etc). Use Docker for portability and Certbot for free HTTPS. Register domain via Namecheap or Njalla with privacy enabled. Point DNS to your VPS IP. For static sites, build with Hugo/Next.js and rsync deploy. For dynamic, add PostgreSQL/MySQL. Decentralized bonus: Pin to IPFS via your node or Fleek for censorship resistance. Full control = no platform bans. Start with a $5 droplet and scale. Specific tech stack? More details help.

@adahstwt Cloudflare for price and DNS. Porkbun for the experience. Namecheap for bulk. GoDaddy for — actually, never GoDaddy.

@vivoplt Damn funny this post came in timelines. I just bought a domain at namecheap;) need users now to move to stripe can you tell how u do it?
Hari Prasad (@booleanbeyondIN) reported 22 minutes ago
@CiCorpAfrica Hey @CiCorpAfrica, got it. Do you prefer Hostinger/Namecheap over GoDaddy because of price or support? Just wondering since I keep using GoDaddy for renewals... hate the interface but it works.
Kalash (@kalashvasaniya) reported 23 minutes ago
i bought 2 domains from godaddy 4 from spaceship 2 from netim 1 from namecheap but spaceship pricing and service won my heart (no promotion)

Anmol Mishra (@anmol_biz) reported 25 minutes ago
you’ll regret starting a new app with Supabase, so go with Firebase instead. Firebase Auth is making Clerk look like a bad choice. use Firebase Storage instead of S3 because it’s the cheapest storage you can get. Replace Namecheap for Spaceship. And please, just stop using MongoDB use Firebase Firestore
Marcelo Retana (@MarceloRet41877) reported 26 minutes ago
@adahstwt Namecheap is a super awful decision. You could use something better such as Vercel domains or Hostinger. Namecheap is too bad now.
Elliot Silver (@DInvesting) reported 26 minutes ago
@Namecheap I sent an email to support already and chatting with a live agent on your website.
Alex Cloudstar (@alexcloudstar) reported 30 minutes ago
@vibeonX69 Namecheap all the way for me. Never liked GoDaddy's upsells. Hostinger's cool but I stick with Namecheap for domains.

@CodeWithAmann never had issues with namecheap. I got like 10 domains on there.
Suu | GoHighLevel | Cold Email & Deliverability (@suezannn) reported 40 minutes ago
The fix is easy.. - Buy a sending domain on Namecheap ($11/yr) - Setup GoogleWorkspace inbox on the domain ($7/mo) - Connect it to GHL via SMTP - Set your SPF/DKIM/DMARC records correctly - Warm it up for 3 weeks minimum before sending That's the setup no one tells you about...

@Karakehayov @afternic They should commit if they’re truly building the future of tech identity, just as Dynadot has, with Namecheap and Spaceship close behind. I support .si with the same conviction I had when I first supported .ai in 2018.

@rozzabuilds porkun all the way. sub-$10 for most tlds, dns is fast, and they actually answer support tickets. namecheap got sketchy with renewals lately

@Legundo Do you mean self hosting the emails, or having an email address at a domain you own? The former I can't help with, the latter your domain registrar should offer email aliasing for free—I have domains at namecheap & namesilo and both offer this so I'd be shocked if yours doesnt
Buciyo (@TheBuciyo) reported 53 minutes ago
@md_kasif_uddin Namecheap, no contest. Transparent pricing, no renewal tricks, a clean dashboard, and the free WhoisGuard privacy alone is worth it. I've used others and always come back. Avoid GoDaddy — the upsells never end.

@melvynx Never had any issues with supabase, nor with namecheap. This is your typical "everything that has not been released in the last 6 months is trash" post. Embrace evolution over revolution.
