Dante (@thedntx) reported@TTrimoreau Porkbun if u want clean interface. Namecheap for bundles. Never godaddy, thats 2010 behavior.

Johnny Picante (@JohnnyPic51) reported@CertainLogicAI @buildwithmaya @Namecheap Agreed for the validation phase β cheapest thing that ships wins. Where a geo-TLD earns its keep is after you've got signal and want the URL itself doing some work (local SEO, word-of-mouth memorability) instead of just hosting code.

Matthew Belcher (@Trigun420) reported@Namecheap @JakawaEIWHunter Looks like it was taken down. Good work @namecheap

Domayn Kapital (@domaynkapital) reported@Namecheap every other week there's a domain I win domains with non-functioning namerservers. 3-4 times in last months. I contact support and they tell gaslight me telling me it's all fine. Waste 30 minutes until they call a specialist to fixt it. Please deal with this.

SYL Vexora- Jaron K Bragg (@JaronBragg) reported@its_sidraa Why not skip namecheap and just use cloudflare for both domain and DNS? Cloudflare actually puts my website on the map. Namecheap I never seen it and was hard for others to surface. Other than that it makes sense.

Rian (@Rian_Visser) reported@YashHustle_22 Namecheap. Been with them for a couple for a couple decades now. Easy to use systems, great customer support, never had a single problem with a domain name registered through them.

Snigdha Sur (@snigdhasur) reported@vivekteega @prbhtkumr @Namecheap Just so folks know their rights, a domain provider canβt shut down your domain globally without a proper court order, especially if youβre running a legitimate business. Thatβs why we won our TRO (temporary restraining order) to get it back

νλΉ | Hyunbin (@hyunbinseo97) reportedI didn't like Squarespace Domains, but they - support TLD not supported by Cloudflare Registar - the transfer price Namecheap is calling is absurd I guess I will have to stay for these two domains.

addison (@uwunetes) reporteddo I know anyone at namecheap (or knows someone at namecheap) that could help with something sort of asap?

Maya (@buildwithmaya) reported@janstevens @Namecheap it really is haha, tbh its better than go daddy I used to be a loyal customer but with Namecheap I am def spending way less than what I did with godaddy

Maximiliano Moxarella (@maxi_moxa) reported@robj3d3 @Namecheap flirting with a domain registrar on public twitter is a cry for help

Avdhoottt (@avdhootttt) reportedIf you want to build a startup that actually has users: Claude = coding. (more like $100+) Supabase = backend. ($25-599/mo once you cross free tier) Vercel = deploying. ($20-150+/mo once you get real traffic) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr, ok this one's real) Stripe = payments. (2.9% + 30Β’/transaction) GitHub = version control. (free) Resend = emails. (free until 3k emails, then $20/mo+) Clerk = auth. (free until 10k MAU, then $25/mo+) Cloudflare = DNS. (free, genuinely) PostHog = analytics. (free until you cross the free tier) Sentry = error tracking. (free until errors pile up) Upstash = Redis. (free until real traffic) Pinecone = vector DB. ($70/mo minimum) Total monthly cost to run a startup with actual users: $300-1000+ "$21/mo" is the cost to run a demo nobody uses.

Shant (@ShantDotMe) reported@Namecheap for the love of God, please do train your support agents a bit better. It is NOT OK for your agent to tell users to use an IP address, without a valid SSL certificate, to login!!!

Nas (@Nas_tech_AI) reportedYou canβt believe this: you spent more on coffee this month than on a startupβs infrastructure. If youβre still waiting for the βright momentβ to build, this is it.

Ajetomobi Jamiu (@JamiuAjetomobi) reportedIt doesn't matter how great your content or product is if your audience never sees it. βThe fix requires updating your technical security keys inside your domain host (like @GoDaddy or @Namecheap) so providers know you are a trusted sender.
-
TheRealPomax (@TheRealPomax) reported@Namecheap The part where I type a postal code, and just because there's a space (which your JS should be able to verify is irrelevant) the form goes "FIX THIS VALUE IT IS WRONG" when in fact no, it is not: validate _after_ removing semantically irrelevant characters.

Lg Shurley (@SurelyLg) reported@Namecheap #namecheap lost a thousands of dollars today due to bad business. They refused to refund a purchase they made a mistake on. This violates a sacred covenant between business & customer. They are unethical and have forgotten what it means to appreciate a customer.#ethics
