David Haddad (@daveying99) reported@levelsio @Cloudflare Easy decision. Only thing I would like more is domain favoriting (considering buying) and more tld support (namecheap has more and godaddy much more)
-
David Jennings (@ChilliDoor) reported@ImLunaHey @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Kinda like how most of AWS broke when they had a DynamoDB issue in us-east-1. It's crazy how you'd expect these things to not happen at these huge tech companies but here we are...

King Damian ♤ (@damian_codes) reportedAt this point, I think Namecheap is rage baiting me o. Wtf 🥴 I’ve searched for over 50 names with dot com, and I keep getting “taken”, “registered since **** “ And when I visit those url, it’s 404. No website for them but it’s taken. How 😭 Is it coincidence that people have thought of these names too or something is broken somewhere?

Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@NamecheapCEO so damn… My ******* Quasar server got shut down today just after I was told last night that I would get a month complementary Grace because of my business being shut down (outage) and now my entire goddamn platform is off-line again! ****! @Namecheap bullshit!

SolPay (@SolPayCash) reported5/ This launch was delayed a bit by the recent Namecheap DNS outage, but we’re moving again. This week we’ll publish a video demo from inside SolPay Sandbox showing the Commerce Graph in action. 2,000+ products is just the starting dataset.

Saul Flores Jr. (@SaulFloresJr) reportedJust bought a couple more domains while I’m still negotiating the sale of an older one. Time to build something new. This one is more physics related. No idea what it becomes yet. I’ve just been going down a rabbit hole of light, electromagnetics, hardware, space, and a bunch of things I barely understood a few weeks ago. Only one way to find out where it goes. Keep building. Thanks @Namecheap

oscar (@oscargaske) reported@RiverKhan I've used namecheap for a while and their UI is definitely ****, butttt if it's that bad why not switch to Vercel/something prettier?
-
Top Shelf Names (@TopShelfNames) reportedSpaceship seems to have rewritten everything from the ground up except for the domain search function which is arguably the most important feature, and the worst part about Namecheap. I may be alone here, but I find Beast Mode insufferable.

@pweiser 4 gov (@nikkiglyn) reported@Namecheap My service is down again.

Onyema One (@MbadiweOnyema) reported@thatdavidoc @doctorbeau @NamecheapCEO There's nothing cheap or unserious about Namecheap. There has been server downtimes in the history of all major cloud hosting services. And this one has never happened in years.
-
Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You still have issues and you should be transparent about it. And the new format is horrible. You are touting it as improved but it adds nothing new and takes away everything that was so useful in the OX interface. Guess I'm changing providers after some good years.

KP (@thisiskp_) reportedOk this will sound like a hyperbole post but it’s not I have been using Instinct, the new AI assistant and it just found me ~$700/yr in subscriptions I forgot I was paying for. Real things it did: • Audited my Gmail and mapped every recurring subscription: ~$290/mo I wasn’t fully tracking • Found a “Universal TV Remote” app billing me $5.99 PER WEEK. That’s $311/yr for a remote app. Killed • Cancelled my AARP auto-renewal end to end: logged in, navigated the account, verified the confirmation screen • Flagged that my AAA membership ($121/yr) was duplicative because Geico already covers roadside. Cancelled that auto-renewal too • Caught a domain auto-renewing for $76 the next day and turned it off in Namecheap the night before • Found Suno at $30/mo I barely used. Downgraded to $10 • Sends me my kid’s school lunch menu every night at 7pm without me asking • Told me my car needed an emissions test before tag renewal, and that the deadline falls on my birthday. Saved a wasted trip • Built and deployed a tic tac toe game to my Netlify in ~10 min • Deployed a directory of 46 personal site previews to my Netlify • Designed 4 creative directions for my sister’s film studio site, then built the full site on the winner • Pulled my Netlify team ID from my personal account when I needed it Total: ~$700/yr in zombie subscriptions gone, plus a few hours of errands I never did. The underrated part isn’t the doing. It’s that it noticed things and proactively suggested what to do. Plus the UX was chef’s kiss This is about instinct. co, the app that’s all the rage on X lately Not a sponsored post nor am I an investor just a fan and early user

Corinson Davila (@corinsondavila) reported@NamecheapCEO Unfortunately all the emails I could have received during the Namecheap shortage are lost. You talked about "emails received during the outage may be delayed" but I don't think you're going to restore anything. Is your company will refund for this lost? Please, be honest.

Julian Schubert (@julian_durian) reported@Gaus450 Before I bought mine at Namecheap, I moved everything to Cloudflare after their huge outage.
