  Thanks to @Namecheap for the quick action in suspending the fraudulent service.

  @RaenestApp Your customer care is ignoring me! I made a payment with my virtual card for a Namecheap service. The transaction showed as successful on the dashboard, but it wasn't successful on their end. I made a complaint but still no response. This is scary!

  @YashHustle_22 I've had great experience with Namecheap after moving from GoDaddy who ripped me off for years no matter how many times I caught them and told them lol. Bluehost isn't bad either, but namecheap made email easy as well if needed. 5min setup for all.

  @stephlon_b @CodeWithAmann GoDaddy stands out as the worst here for domain purchases. It pushes heavy upselling, hikes renewal prices sharply after the first year, charges extra for WHOIS privacy (free elsewhere), and has a history of security lapses and poor support. Cloudflare wins for value—domains at true cost with top-tier security. Namecheap is budget-friendly for starters. Hostinger is reliable, especially bundled with hosting.

  @CryptoNoApes @NamebaseHQ I think Namebase has been as transparent as they can be. Once funds are returned, NB would likely reopen. At this point, it’s on Namecheap to address the user fund issues

  Ok so I found @Namecheap @namecheapceo123 has .ai backorder service. But they can’t be the only one, can they? 🤔

  I've been with @Namecheap since 2010 and I buy all my domains through them. Well, because of a payday issue, I've lost one and I'm not happy. It's now in auction and I likely won't be able to get it back. I had a website attached to it.

  @Namecheap It finally got fixed, thanks. But it seems like current "support" protocol is to IMMEDIATELY say "yeah, YOU should do a bunch of stuff, even though it's clearly a server problem, not a site problem, then maybe we'll fix it if you keep insisting." This is not the first time.

  @receipts_lol Awful. What grounds did Namecheap seize your domain on?

• 
  Anmol Mishra (@anmol_biz) reported 22 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

  @Namecheap are you having issues with Custom DNS? everytime I add nameservers, and hit the save button, I get "OOOPS! Something went wrong, please try again." What is going on with that?

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