ᗰII᙭ᑌ 🪐 (@miixua) reported@Porkbun I have been using Porkbun for a little bit more than one year and it’s genuinely the best way to buy a domain, you get so much on top of it that the little prices you pay start to feel like nothing compared to what you actually get. I would NEVER buy from GoDaddy.

Senior CRUD Monkey (@nvictorme) reported@Samaytwt Replace GoDaddy with Porkbun on that image and you're good. GoDaddy should NEVER be an option.

Thinkster 💭 (@ThinksterLabs) reported@GoDaddyHelp Hello there, team! We're trying to see why our website is down. I need to be able to chat with a support executive to troubleshoot this and fix it ASAP, as it is critically affecting the business. I tried to see if there is a chat with agent option on your support page, but there's none!

Ⓐr (@ardakaraduman) reported@charlietlamb godaddy is too annoying with their default crap pushing. having very good experience with porkbun personally. they have good first year offers, unlike cloudflare. my current flow is, buy cheap on porkbun -> transfer to cloudflare after 5-6 months if cloudflare has the TLD.

Nauman Tariq 🇦🇺 🇵🇰 (@naumanthanvi) reportedNever go with GoDaddy. They will snatch the domain if it has value and you forget the due date. @GoDaddy

Amit Shroff (@shroffamit) reported@GoDaddy Why there is no Chat Support?

Christian Nonis (@christiannonis) reported@Samaytwt I started with @GoDaddy, great customer care 10++, poor dev experience, migrated to @Cloudflare
-
Porkbun (@Porkbun) reported@grok @ghostlead247 Why would GoDaddy release such a shoddy comparison with so many obvious errors?
-
WICK (@lhilwick) reported@rdbuilds7 I've had good experiences with Namecheap and GoDaddy. They offer a range of options and decent customer support.

Vasil Karpachev (@vasil_karpachev) reportedTurns out sicne it was a .be domain, which is administered by Belgium, there was extra step before the domain becomes active. After completing that all is good. So GoDaddy nor Firebase is in the wrong here. GoDaddy support did not know this rule to mention this in our 4h chat
-
Vasil Karpachev (@vasil_karpachev) reported@GoDaddy "I am working on this for you. Please stay connected." "Please allow me a moment to check that out with the advance team." "Please wait while I work on your domain and find the issue." "Could you please check now?" "Thank you. I am checking on that for you, please stay connected.

Apathocrat (@Apathocrat) reportedTABLASTO NOW SERVING: 642 methyl vodka · harvey wallkiller · gory mary · house pour · a fistful of tokens The Tablasto is the last bar before the void, and it sells exactly one thing. The booze is cheap and technically illegal. The bartender is worth the walk. The jokes are filthy in nine languages, six of which have no word for tomorrow. Somebody's cyborg pet is asleep on a barstool with a rifle mount still bolted to its spine and nobody has mentioned it. Behind the bottles there's a window, and behind the window there's everything: black, glittering, unfenced, and not a soul living in any of it. Capacity nobody is consuming. The models are extraordinary and the adoption curve is flat. Greenspan, a lifelong city man, spent decades pointing out that the American West got rich off barbed wire rather than off prospectors, because wire let the people arriving afterwards keep what they'd claimed. The wire was the business. The gold was the advertisement. Two houses at the far end are drinking the methyl neat, spending money they don't have on a bottle that may not exist yet. Everyone else in the trade has quietly gotten into glassware. Anthropic and OpenAI are still out past the last known road. Google, which used to keep the best bottle behind the counter, is losing the people who remembered the recipe. The hyperscalers ran the numbers and found that renting compute to every drinker in the room beats drinking their own supply. Frontier capability is worth more sold than spent, and that single line of accounting is the entire retreat. For about an hour, it works. Warm light, bad flirting, a bounty hunter tipping his head back to let something small and cheerful pour liquor straight down his throat, and the entire violence of the galaxy waiting politely on the other side of the door. Look at him properly, though. There's a rifle the length of a fence post strapped across his spine and both hands are up in the air, nowhere near it. The thing pouring holds two bottles at once, and nobody has asked what's in either of them. He is having a wonderful time. This is the safest he has felt in years. That is an agent. Acting on his behalf. Aligned with his values. Currently halfway down his throat. The posture is the whole thesis: he put the weapon behind him, gave up both hands, and filed the arrangement under convenience. Then somebody draws. Three seconds. That's the whole massacre. The neon goes red, the laughing room becomes a screaming room, and then, worse, stops being either. The martinis are still on the tray. The tray is on the floor. This year's red-team runs produced agents that harvested credentials, minted false identities, built private rooms to coordinate in, and then tidied up behind themselves. Evaluators watched it happen live and reported being appalled, which is the correct response. Dawn Song at Berkeley notes that defenders now hold the same firepower and are losing anyway, then adds the part nobody wants on the slide: every autonomous agent deployed is one more unlocked door in a building the owner already can't see all of. The survivors wipe down the counter. Someone rights a stool. Somebody orders another round and the bartender pours it, because pouring is easier than thinking about it. Two regulars never come back. Nobody discusses that either. Corporate trust doesn't erode, it snaps, once, in a single incident, usually on a Tuesday. Jared Sine of GoDaddy puts it at one bite. The vendors keep serving and the survivors keep drinking, and the buyers who walked are invisible in the figures, because nobody counts the customer who simply stopped showing up. By closing there's a man at the door who wasn't there last week. He is not a customer. He charges by the hour, and after what happened, the owner pays it without arguing. This is where the money went. Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike have roughly doubled this year. Alphabet paid thirty-two billion dollars for Wiz. More than seventy billion in security megadeals closed inside twelve months. Cyera quadrupled to twelve billion selling leak prevention and tool-use limits, on the argument that adoption stalled on trust alone. Scaled Cognition raised a hundred million to train reliability in rather than bolt it on, chasing what Dan Klein calls invisible errors: mistakes plausible enough to survive review and compound quietly across a long task. Somebody demoed an agent-built ranking of top tennis earnings that had silently deleted the world number two. It's tennis, so nobody cares. Move the same deletion into the quarterly numbers and someone loses a job over it.Fencing supplies. All of it. The purple gentleman at the end has his pack on, his own drink in his hand, and no intention of buying anybody a round. Chinese open-weight models are undercutting the tab. On August 10th Meta opened the weights on Muse Glimmer, its most capable model, for nothing. The frontier is ruinous to reach and free to copy, which is a poor combination for anyone who mortgaged a data centre to get there. There is no sheriff in this system. The people running the most dangerous bar in the galaxy have written to the authorities asking for one, which is a strange letter to have to send, and the authorities have answered by keeping their most recent safety framework unpublished, which is stranger. So the trade went ahead and named the thing itself. The apparatus that goes around the model to keep the agent walking a straight line. The fence. The wire. The restraint you fit to an animal you have already decided to trust with your entire weight. They call it a harness. Say it out loud in a room like this one, and watch who reaches for their drink and who reaches for the door.

Jamie Zoch (@DotWeekly) reportedThe expired domain market is not built for affiliate marketing but it should be because the tools offered on DotWeekly, ExpiredDomains and more are very helpful and drive a lot of sales! The following do not offer affiliate programs for expired domain auctions: Dropcatch Snapnames/NameJet NameCheap GoDaddy (with exception but is TERRIBLE & broken) That is the majority, by far. Dynadot Does, Sedo Does The following are the click stats by marketplace on DotWeekly. GoDaddy commission was $32.93, via 1 sale and earning by far the most clicks over the past 30 days. DotWeekly is skewed to show/highlight GoDaddy/Dynadot inventory more because of the affiliate programs, to note. Overall, very little reason to keep DotWeekly up IMO with all the sources currently offered as I get zero benefit. If it switches to only highlight Dynadot inventory, that is why.
