  So many people "have no idea" how to leverage AI in their lives. That's because ~90% of working adults (in the US) work for somebody else in a hierarchical largely inflexible environment... and even if they enjoyed a flatter more "intrapreneurial" environment... anything created and produced on company time (which any employer would argue is if the thing ended up being great) would belong to the employer. So for those people... here's a suggestion. Make a list of things in which you possess some skill or that you personally enjoy. For example, say you love camping or road-tripping. Maybe people come to you for advice. Maybe you post a lot on socials about trips with your family. Come up with a cool brand name for a service or even just a cool website. I'm just going to randomly make something up right now... say your last name is Smith. You land on the brand name "Smithtrip" or "Smithtripping." Go to GoDaddy or a similar domain site and grab the name for like 12 bucks. Then go to Claude and do a mental download to it (sometimes voice-to-text or recording yourself works too.. faster and more stream of consciousness) about your interests, history, and perspective around roadtripping/camping. Explain that you want to build a brand around it... and start off with an interactive website that compiles and organizes all your favorite spots, gear recommendations, curated agenda ideas, etc... things you probably tell people for free all the time anyway. Brainstorm with Claude on what that could look like and have it fill in your idea gaps to round it out. Then tell Claude to write a series of comprehensive prompts to have this website created in Lovable. Then drop those into Lovable... iterate, play with it, go from there... Just seeing it appear physically in front of you on a screen will open your mind and create another flood of ideas... then it all becomes a flywheel. Anyone can do this right now. If you have "nothing to offer" or "don't really have any passions".... then you should read more books, travel more, make new friends, start going to the gym... frankly there's a lot of life you should probably start experiencing. This is basically a life test. If you "have no idea" what you can do with AI right now... even after reading this... then you probably "have no idea" what you're even doing in life at all and should work on that. VEO out!

  @GoDaddy your outsourced support team is yanking my chain pretty hard, trying to trick me into tons of upsells instead of just giving me a refund. Pretty messed up.

  Monday was my last day at GoDaddy as my role was eliminated in a reorg. If you want a guy who's skilled in Customer Support, naturally tends toward mile-wide, inch-deep knowledge of product offerings, and tries hard to bring cheerfulness to whatever he does, hit me up!

  @rorysutherland My favourite incident of forced eavesdropping, incidentally, ended when a friend of mine in the BA lounge at Heathrow took to GoDaddy and registered the trademarks being loudly discussed by a phwanker, parading up and down and apparently impervious to his audibility.

  @dogwoodblooms @GoDaddy screwed us over on credit card processing BIG TIME. After reading through pages of BBB and reddit reviews, they've done it to everyone else too. They put us under a security review in the beginning. We submitted all the required documentation, Everything was great, we continued processing for months with no issues, zero refunds, zero disputes. Then one day out of nowhere, they triggered a hold on our funds and shut down our account. The worst part? They held our funds and STILL tried to debit our account for the processing fees despite shutting down our processing ability. I've been on a rampage since then telling everyone I know not to use them.

  @nym @GoDaddy it's called a ******* DOMAIN name which literally means PROPERTY. and yet some woke commies don't quite get the concept that it isn't their PROPERTY to disable or **** with it.

  December 9, 2024: 21Vianet (China-operated Microsoft partner) appears as primary provider in GoDaddy Microsoft 365 tenant. Screenshot shared with support; initial questions on data location and Copilot raised. Early 2025: Migrated tenant to Microsoft Direct to resolve concerns. Received conflicting explanations regarding data residency. June 2025: Evaluated proposed Microsoft Direct tenant; screenshots showed multiple unknown data locations. Declined move. Mid-December 2025: Returned to GoDaddy implementation after Microsoft Direct provided no resolution. Continued detailed documentation (logs, spreadsheets, Entra activity) submitted to support. Ongoing (to July 2026): Nearly two years of inconsistent responses despite evidence provided. Open questions remain on tenant provenance and security flags.

  @GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp Why is the chat help button still missing from your site? It's been too many days. There is no way to contact GoDaddy.

  India wants to crack down on fake websites. GoDaddy says the cure could end up hurting the internet. After years of rising online fraud, the Delhi High Court ordered sweeping measures against more than 1,100 fake websites accused of impersonating brands like Amazon, Microsoft, and McDonald's. Sounds reasonable—until you look at what comes next. The order doesn't just target scammers. According to Reuters, it would require domain registrars like GoDaddy to reveal domain-owner information within 72 hours to anyone with a "legitimate interest," stop offering free privacy protection in many cases, and restrict registrations for domain names that resemble existing trademarks. GoDaddy isn't saying fake websites should be protected. It's saying these rules could expose legitimate website owners, clash with privacy laws like India's data protection framework and the GDPR, and make it harder for journalists, activists, small businesses, and ordinary users to protect their identities online. The company has warned that, if broadly enforced, some domain providers could even reconsider operating in India. Here's the trade-off. Everyone wants phishing sites taken down. Nobody wants the internet to become a place where registering a domain means giving up your privacy at the first request. That's why GoDaddy, along with other domain companies, has challenged the order in the Delhi High Court. The irony is hard to miss. India is trying to make the internet safer. Some of the companies that help build the internet are warning the rules could make it less private—and potentially less open—for everyone else. The case now heads back to the Delhi High Court later this month, where the outcome could shape not just India's fight against cyber fraud, but how much privacy internet users can expect when they register a website.

  if you're building a startup. pause for a second. You should stop overpaying for your stack. this is enough to launch: claude - coding supabase - backend vercel - deploys GoDaddy - domain stripe - payments github - version control resend - emails clerk - auth cloudflare - dns posthog - analytics sentry - errors upstash - redis most of this is free. The real cost is time, so ship fast, and optimize later

  If you’re thinking about using @GoDaddy for your website, learn from my experience before you commit. After being a loyal customer for over two years with multiple products, a payment failed because my bank card had been stolen and replaced. By the time I realized what happened, my Managed WordPress site had been suspended. Support confirmed my backup still exists, but I was quoted C$200 to restore it. I spent hours in chat, over 40 minutes on the phone, and spoke with multiple representatives with no meaningful resolution. For me, the most disappointing part wasn’t the missed payment. It was the lack of flexibility, empathy, and customer service after years of being a loyal customer. Do your research before trusting your website and your content to any hosting provider. I know I will be choosing a different one going forward.

  @afternic The problem in my opinion is to have a Godaddy domain and you can't list it in other markets- those repeatedly check dns @Dynadot @sawsells - without losing both Afternic NS & The lander, since GoDadd offers only specific page or AN dns.

  @GoDaddyHelp Hello, I have just joined your service and I ask myself the following question. By subscribing it is indicated that I benefit from $30 of free auction, and the registration of .com returns to €9.61 Except when I want to bid on a domain it is written that the renewal of the domain is at the cost of €21.99 😱 Is the real price taken into account at the end? @GoDaddy @GoDaddyPro
