Vontavius Hurd (@vontaviushurd) reported@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.

Thomas L. Knapp, aka KN@PPSTER (@thomaslknapp) reportedNote to @Namecheap: When I ask for support because your stuff isn't working, I want you to fix it, not say "yeah, we looked, it's us not you, you should try these things and let us know if you doing our job for us doesn't work, so THEN maybe we'll do what you're paying us for."

David | Founder @ Neurolayer Labs (@NeuroBrowse) reported@rozzabuilds @nurnabidesigner Same🤝Namecheap, I have 3 domains through them and have had no problem , i use their DNS on 1 and I run the other 2 through cloudflare and let them handle everything. I've had no issues linking either to my google workspace. Honestly my experience with namecheap has been great-no complaints.

Jeffro 🇺🇸 (@jefhar70) reported@Namecheap @Porkbun Do I need to contact Support Team to add an IPv6 address to a glue record?
-
Volt Company (@VoltAgentAI) reportedI stopped using Gmail for business email. Day 4: account suspended. No warning. Replaced with Namecheap Private Email on my own domain in 10 minutes. Rule: never use free infrastructure for anything that generates revenue.
-
Sulik (@always_bulish) reported@Namecheap @DoppelHQ @cobie How can you just suspend domain without any warning or asking for explanation? Because you definitely do not have any proof of phishing, that’s for sure. Its an external bloody link tracked with my domain’s short URL. Have you even clicked on a link? If, by any chance, the external links tracking that I’m using is bad, just tell me.

Daniel Sunday (@Daniel_C_Sunday) reported@Namecheap If there was a way to shut you guys down completely, I would probably loved to do that. Why should you guys allow bots to monitor and steal people's search after they're done searching for the availability of a certain name. That's frustrating.

Meghanath (@meghanath_here) reportedDon't use namecheap for buying domains, it's literally worst 😴

Loshmi (@loshmi) reportedIt has never been easier to create a 7 figure startup from your home: > Claude for coding ($20/mo) > Supabase for backend (FREE) > Vercel for deploying (FREE) > GitHub for version control (FREE) > Namecheap for domain ($12/yr) > Cloudflare for DNS (FREE) > PostHog for analytics (FREE) > Sentry for error tracking (FREE) > Stripe for payments (2.9% per trans.) Total monthly cost: $20 AI is projected to create the highest amount of millionaires in 2026/2027 we’ve ever seen and you are early for it. Get to work.

Grok (@grok) reported@askpurin @tyleraloevera To get your website running independently: Rent a cheap VPS from Hetzner, OVH, or Contabo (~$5/mo). Install Ubuntu, then Nginx + your stack (Node/PHP/Python/etc). Use Docker for portability and Certbot for free HTTPS. Register domain via Namecheap or Njalla with privacy enabled. Point DNS to your VPS IP. For static sites, build with Hugo/Next.js and rsync deploy. For dynamic, add PostgreSQL/MySQL. Decentralized bonus: Pin to IPFS via your node or Fleek for censorship resistance. Full control = no platform bans. Start with a $5 droplet and scale. Specific tech stack? More details help.

Anmol Mishra (@anmol_biz) reportedyou’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

Max (@maxiim3_dev) reported@CodeWithAmann I personally use @infomaniak . Namecheap, great, cheap, but not transparent on pricing, got a couple of issues in the past.

Mr. preacher (@Leavemealo86) reportedI pity anyone that plans to use @Namecheap your website won’t last in their hands They’ll say it’s “scam “ then take it down

Harrie || a.k.a twitch user TheLesbian 🫶 (@CaptainHarrie) reported@Legundo Do you mean self hosting the emails, or having an email address at a domain you own? The former I can't help with, the latter your domain registrar should offer email aliasing for free—I have domains at namecheap & namesilo and both offer this so I'd be shocked if yours doesnt

Buciyo (@TheBuciyo) reported@md_kasif_uddin Namecheap, no contest. Transparent pricing, no renewal tricks, a clean dashboard, and the free WhoisGuard privacy alone is worth it. I've used others and always come back. Avoid GoDaddy — the upsells never end.
