  Lauren (@Lorncat) reported 6 minutes ago

  @NamecheapCEO Support team at NameCheap is saying they don’t have an ETA for remaining users. In response to whether this would take weeks/months, they kept saying “It may be restored much sooner; we simply don't have a specific timeframe to provide at the moment.” So possibly years too

  There has never been a cheaper time to build. Claude = coding. ($20/mo) Supabase = backend. (Free) Vercel= deploying. (Free) Namecheap = domain.
($12/yr) Stripe = payments. (2.9%/
transaction) GitHub = version control.
(Free) Resend = emails. (Free) Clerk = auth. (Free) Cloudflare = DNS. (Free) PostHog = analytics. (Free) Sentry = error tracking.
(Free) Upstash - Redis. (Free) Pinecone = vector DB.
(Free) Total monthly cost to run a startup: ~$20

  What we learnt from yesterday’s Namecheap outage: When your infrastructure sits in one data center abroad, one power/cooling failure can take down thousands of sites, emails, and domains at once. Local, distributed hosting reduces that single point of failure.

  @Namecheap Guys you said to DM you I’m staring at my screen waiting. Don’t bait me with help and then run

  @Namecheap someone is impersonating our company using a domain that is very similar to ours. They are scamming influencers while using our company name. I reported this to your abuse team 7 days ago. no response. Can someone get back to us ASAP and take this domain down?

  @a_shimanski @Namecheap Sorry about that and I agree, we could have postponed this until next week especially after the recent outage.

  Namecheap is having an outage currently, which appears to be affecting my company email.

  mmdhsrc (@mmdhsrc) reported 27 minutes ago

  @Namecheap Namecheap is a truly terrible company. They charged me for the PrivateSSL service which is part of a hosting plan I was planning to cancel before the billing date. When I asked for a refund, they said the charge was non-refundable. It’s a rip-off.

  @siphomkwa @NamecheapCEO that isn't correct. any emails sent you you will arrive. RFC 5321 Section 4.5.4 "Retries continue until the message is transmitted or the sender gives up; the give-up time generally needs to be at least 4-5 days." the senders' mail servers will continue trying to email you until namecheap is back online, unless the outage had lasted 4 or 5 days

  @Victual_Bro @Namecheap No ****. I cannot send woprk e-mails!!! Again. This is BS.

  @samotechnology @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap A 503 usually points to the upstream service being unavailable or overloaded. I’d check the server resources, Nginx/Apache error logs, and upstream/backend status first.

  @JEROMEFARAILL @Namecheap @Cloudflare to be fair it was a cooling failure at PhoenixNAP, not an attack. the single region setup is the real issue

  Gary Kriebel (@GaryKriebel) reported 39 minutes ago

  @Namecheap You don't release new software removing functionality from the users. Your actions will make me miss my wife's doctor's appointments. I've expressed the details to your support staff. I will be looking for a new provider. This is unacceptable.

  Farmercologist (@farfesadee) reported 43 minutes ago

  So apparently, Contabo newly introduced a free firewall feature which was enabled on the account and as a result, every incoming traffic was being dropped. More so, the issue Namecheap had last Thursday affected our domain as well, the DNS record completely stopped communicating with the server’s public IP. All issues fixed💯💯💯. Now I can rest😒😒😒 This is one of the things you get for working as a Bsckend Engineer.

  Joseph Miclaus (@josephmiclaus) reported 46 minutes ago

  Can anyone beat my ~€10/mo hosting (~€120/year)? → 10 domains included btw. At €12.89 (Namecheap retail price) per .com/year I would already exceed the hosting plan (€128.9/year) just for domain costs. For Laravel I have PHP/Composer, DB, cron, limited SSH and custom domains. What I'm missing is native Go support. It only supports CGI. No process manager. No reverse proxy. Do you know a good/better hosting setup for Laravel, Go or both at roughly this price?

  Spaceship 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.

  @danearden @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Same. What a ******* shame I hope everybody migrates hosting away from this terrible company. I guarantee they won’t do anything to repay loyal customers after this much more than an apology.

• 
  Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported 52 minutes ago

  @NamecheapCEO One of our two sites is still down, no response from HTTP connection request. It's been more 15 hours since our customers cannot access our site. Our competitors do not use namecheap, so they have been up. This is the worst fail imaginable.

  David Silva Smith (@DavidSilvaSmith) reported 54 minutes ago

  @Namecheap when I used openclaw I used a different DNS service that had API/console access, I forget and I could delegate permissions to it. Worked great, but I couldn't switch from ya'll :)

  @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap All I ask is that you provide the best possible service from here on out. Trim away the fat and the bullshit. Collocate priority one.

  🔴 Namecheap is DOWN. Was it hacked? No verified evidence of a cyberattack. Namecheap says the outage is linked to infrastructure issues at its Phoenix data center. 🔴 What happened 🔴 What’s affected 🔴 Why it matters We’re tracking the incident as it develops. #Namecheap #NamecheapDown

  @shadilayvision @Namecheap Just speculating about the 8 hour outage with conflicting rumors. Had me wondering about ransomware but it actually was a cooling issue with their Phoenix data center.

  @ZPEdisclosure My wife's site has been down for 3 days and she can't get into any of her other accounts because she set up 2FA through her email and website hosted with Namecheap! @Namecheap WTF???

  Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported 1 hour ago

  @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.
