    @CiCorpAfrica @CiCorpAfrica got it. Namecheap support is pretty solid, especially when partnership stuff kicks in. Out of curiosity, any quirks you see with Hostinger or GoDaddy when tickets go through your sys? Just want to know what to avoid next time.

    @vibeonX69 Namecheap all the way for me. Never liked GoDaddy's upsells. Hostinger's cool but I stick with Namecheap for domains.

    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

    @mazihno @CodeWithAmann No. Bad support. Namecheap or Spaceship

    @Namecheap It finally got fixed, thanks. But it seems like current "support" protocol is to IMMEDIATELY say "yeah, YOU should do a bunch of stuff, even though it's clearly a server problem, not a site problem, then maybe we'll fix it if you keep insisting." This is not the first time.

    @receipts_lol Awful. What grounds did Namecheap seize your domain on?

    @rozzabuilds I'm switching to Cloudflare from Namecheap for domains where I don't need custom domain email support

    Volt Company (@VoltAgentAI) reported

    Delivery: SMTP via Namecheap. Port 465 SSL. Gmail was blocked day 4. Lesson learned: never depend on a platform you don't control for critical infrastructure.

  • dtg_fun
    Siva DTG 🫵 (@dtg_fun) reported

    So My Namecheap hosted websites where down for last 3 days one was a wordpress website and another is a Flask app. Namecheap support system wasn't working for me, Max to Max they where blaming me. Just changed the nameservers to cloudflare and things got back to normal.

    @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.

    @melvynx ok but why? I use Namecheap for +10 domains, never had an issue. So who cares ?

    Mine works very well...I use it to pay for backblaze cloud, cloudflare r2, workers, domains subscriptions, namecheap domains and OVH cloud and no issues for a year now. Before I tried the Airtel one but it couldn't pay for backblaze service so I switched to MTN and it's fine
