  An underrated part of doing your own thing is all the tangential skills you learn. Just had a client from last year hit me up because their website was not showing online. Getting a "1001 error". Something about Cloudflare. Site built through carrd. Hosted on namecheap. Both renewed in the past year. Carrd reset to "offline draft". Namecheap added another DNS record. And it toggled ' on for the existing records. Carrd has its own ceriticate of security, so the toggles and extra DNS record were creating a problem. Honestly, I can't speak it the lingo exactly. But I knew the language enough to trouble shoot, find another back door tab in Carrd, and troubleshoot the problem. Site back up this morning. With a little help from the AI lords and the ability to speak(screenshot) the problem, it's all better now. Good start to the day. Especially after the little one was up from 11-2 last night!

  WTF, @Namecheap. Need recommendations. For YEARS, I’ve recommended Namecheap over GoDaddy because the support was great and I trusted the experience. Now I’m finding that EVERY SINGLE domain I searched on Namecheap’s WHOIS less than 24 hours ago is suddenly “taken.” Not one. Every. Single. One. People on Reddit raised this exact issue months ago. I defended Namecheap because I’d never experienced it myself and even mentioned it is trust worthy. Well, I faced it now. I searched each domain ONCE. Just once. I wasn’t repeatedly checking them or trying to register them. And now they’re all “taken.” Maybe it’s a coincidence. But it’s a pretty damn weird one because every domain I that I had checked for availability is gone at easily 10x the price. I’m seriously considering moving everything out of Namecheap. Who are you guys using instead? Already using Cloudflare for .com, but I still have a lot of domains at NC.

  @Namecheap loses power in Phoenix due to a storm has to shut down the system to avoid any further damage. Shutting down websites access to all sorts of features it's almost like @Tesla_Megapack doesn't exist in the world. What the heck?

  @hectorivand @Namecheap @Cloudflare that's basically what I want, half my inbox is stuff I never agreed to

  @JulianPhoenix2 @NamecheapCEO He can’t do that. It’s too big of a loss and they would go bankrupt (ideal though — this company is a hazard to businesses, especially essential service ones). One solution is Namecheap credit which matches our reported losses, plus a split of his salary between us all.

  Can anyone beat my ~€10/mo hosting (~€120/year)? → 10 domains included btw. At €12.89 (Namecheap retail price) per .com/year I would already exceed the hosting plan (€128.9/year) just for domain costs. For Laravel I have PHP/Composer, DB, cron, limited SSH and custom domains. What I'm missing is native Go support. It only supports CGI. No process manager. No reverse proxy. Do you know a good/better hosting setup for Laravel, Go or both at roughly this price?

  “We will work extremely hard” here means 1 month extension on the hosting… pure joke of a company! We lost hundreds of thousands in sales and revenue and they are giving 1 month of free service?! #namecheap #hosting #server

  @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Yes, major outage. A storm-triggered cooling system failure at the PhoenixNAP facility forced Namecheap to shut down over 5,000 servers to prevent hardware damage, though services are currently coming back online progressively.
