    CF is the best place to buy domains. Comes with ddoss protection + many other cool features. Hodtinger is best if you want good price. GoDaddy is by far the worst place they will try to upsell you useless things. Namecheap has a terrible DX but good prices. Try spaceship too

    @pcshipp I recently bought a .in domain from Namecheap and it was much cheaper than GoDaddy. Cloudfare doesn’t support the registration of .in extension yet.

    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.

    @mittxldesigns I don’t think their domain is with Amazon. My friend who works in Zepto told they had brought the domain from Namecheap. For some reason they took down that domain. So they brought some other domain and has hosted

    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

    @booleanbeyondIN Namecheap because we have a partnership, the support is much better than the other 2... Though hostinger and godaddy are supported on our systems too....

    @itsaaroshi Fr, straight honest answer: Cloudflare for DNS, management, and zero sketchy upsells.Porkbun & Cloudflare all the way.Porkbun for cheap, clean domain pricing + free privacy. Namecheap mid, Dynadot solid but UI clunky.Never touch GoDaddy (scammy upsells, overpriced). No cringe hidden fees, no forced add-ons, just simple domains.

    So @Namecheap is no longer giving 3 free mailboxes. Damn, we need an alternative solution. You cannot be purchasing domains for 11 USD and pay 70 dollars for mail boxes, we are not in the 90s

    Domains aren’t expensive… bad registrars are. Use these instead: Cloudflare Namecheap Porkbun Save money → invest in building.

    @CodeWithAmann NameCheap never buy a domain from Cloudflare you won’t be able to use another hosting provider like WordPress, Google Cloud, or AWS. Hostinger is usually just slow and buggy.

    @pranay_wank @krupakotecha_ Never godaddy. they always upsells basic things. Namecheap, Spaceship, Porkbun are good.

    @msnmongare @mbiti_mwondi @kichwa_ DNS management. The thing froze all the time when editing the DNS records and at times just failed. Sahii even pointing my other domains to vercel is not working as it does when I use namecheap

    @melvynx @sepiropht Slow? Slow for what? You are just getting a domain. I have my bot automatically purchase a domain using namecheap api. I set the Nameservers to digital ocean and I am done.

    @ravikiran_dev7 Cloudflare Registrar for domains you plan to keep long term. They sell at cost with no markup. Namecheap for anything quick and cheap. GoDaddy only if you need phone support. Avoid renewing with GoDaddy though, the renewal prices are way higher than the initial promo.
