KP (@thisiskp_) reportedOk this will sound like a hyperbole post but it’s not I have been using Instinct, the new AI assistant and it just found me ~$700/yr in subscriptions I forgot I was paying for. Real things it did: • Audited my Gmail and mapped every recurring subscription: ~$290/mo I wasn’t fully tracking • Found a “Universal TV Remote” app billing me $5.99 PER WEEK. That’s $311/yr for a remote app. Killed • Cancelled my AARP auto-renewal end to end: logged in, navigated the account, verified the confirmation screen • Flagged that my AAA membership ($121/yr) was duplicative because Geico already covers roadside. Cancelled that auto-renewal too • Caught a domain auto-renewing for $76 the next day and turned it off in Namecheap the night before • Found Suno at $30/mo I barely used. Downgraded to $10 • Sends me my kid’s school lunch menu every night at 7pm without me asking • Told me my car needed an emissions test before tag renewal, and that the deadline falls on my birthday. Saved a wasted trip • Built and deployed a tic tac toe game to my Netlify in ~10 min • Deployed a directory of 46 personal site previews to my Netlify • Designed 4 creative directions for my sister’s film studio site, then built the full site on the winner • Pulled my Netlify team ID from my personal account when I needed it Total: ~$700/yr in zombie subscriptions gone, plus a few hours of errands I never did. The underrated part isn’t the doing. It’s that it noticed things and proactively suggested what to do. Plus the UX was chef’s kiss This is about instinct. co, the app that’s all the rage on X lately Not a sponsored post nor am I an investor just a fan and early user

Tapas Adhikary | tapaScript (@tapasadhikary) reported@Namecheap It’s surely not only an interface change. - It is slow - Editing appointments doesn't work intermittently - Can not view attachments without downloading unlike before - Appointment doesn't go through Schedule a call with me, will show you all for free.

Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported@NamecheapCEO A few days on, and @Namecheap still hasn’t addressed the fundamental issue. 14+ hours of business email disruption. Emails bounced. Business communications were affected. I gave Namecheap every opportunity to resolve this privately. Thread 🧵 1/3
-
Ahmed Wajid (@ahmedwajjid) reported@Namecheap is seriously the worst domain provider u could choose. It’s so glitchy and the UI is so 2010s (******) They really weren’t lying with that name lol
-
Kevin Guaman (@KCG3D) reportedi genuinely did not get the "hype" for this AI assistant called Instinct. if you have Codex or Claude, you can technically do everything it does. BUT, the problem is you need to download an app to your machine, make sure you got data/wi-fi, ask Computer Use to get it done, etc. Instinct just turned off auto renewal in Namecheap for a website for me. my first WOW moment was that it has it's own Vault, asked me for my password (like 1Password) and just got **** done for me. i don't know if i fully trust it yet, but it got it done over iMessage, accurately, in less than a minute, and sent a screenshot.

Youssef (@Aladey) reported@ArtenaPro lol yes if GD or Spaceship/namecheap come to me and ask me to do it i will otherwise i will never domainers are like stockholm syndrome they all cry but stick forever with OG platforms

Etta egbe (@ettaegbe) reported@taylorotwell When Namecheap went down, I wondered if the cloud in Laravel cloud is actually cloud as in if a data center in the US fails a data center in Europe can still serve our applications.
-
Old Charter (@OldCharterExp) reported@Dynadot @ZPEdisclosure Is it possible for my wife to move he domain from Namecheap while it's down? I see a LOT of people freaking out that had crypto wallets tied to emails and websites they were hosting, what a total 💩show!
-
Pils10 (@PilsZehn) reported@Nishanttt05 Namecheap, but I like Cloudflare as well... Namecheaps support is tier 1 though..
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported@NamecheapCEO 14+ hours of business email disruption. Emails bounced. Business impacted. Namecheap’s compensation? $10. Yes, $10. Does @Namecheap seriously believe this demonstrates accountability to a small business after a major infrastructure outage? Thread 🧵 1/4
-
JAVB Perú (@JavbPeru) reported@shonvibes @Namecheap Yes, okay, in our case, we can no longer just select UNREAD, we have to search for the email. I suppose they'll fix it.
-
STEM.org (@stemdotorg) reported@Namecheap why won't you disclose who acquired @NamebaseHQ and then shut it down?
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported3/3 Unfortunately, Namecheap’s response has been to minimise the impact, hide behind what its systems recorded, and offer a token $10 credit. @NamecheapCEO — is this genuinely the level of accountability you believe Namecheap should demonstrate after a major outage?
-
Top Shelf Names (@TopShelfNames) reportedSpaceship seems to have rewritten everything from the ground up except for the domain search function which is arguably the most important feature, and the worst part about Namecheap. I may be alone here, but I find Beast Mode insufferable.
-
CatWard (@Catzwitch) reported@Namecheap After escalating through DM here, they were finally able to resolve the issue. We have been on with customer service chat since 9AM Eastern and just finally resolved at 5:15 PM. A full day our clients were down, but eventually resolved.

Adithya 🚀 (@adithyashreshti) reportedWTF, @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.
-
Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You still have issues and you should be transparent about it. And the new format is horrible. You are touting it as improved but it adds nothing new and takes away everything that was so useful in the OX interface. Guess I'm changing providers after some good years.
