    never search domains on godaddy. they very obviously resell this info. better use cloudflare or namecheap or porkbun.

    @matthansbello Sigh, everything was originally done on namecheap but I’ve now just moved the dns to cloudflare. Waiting to see if that fixes the issue

  • 4Ldotcom
    4L.com (@4Ldotcom) reported

    @Dynadot, please allow users to download filtered domain lists from your marketplace without logging in. Right now, when someone clicks the "Download" button, the file is not downloaded. Instead, the user is sent to another page and asked to enter a login and password. All domains are already visible to users who are not logged in. They can also collect the data directly from the page by showing 1,000 results per page. However, it would be much easier if users could download a list based on their selected filters. This would also reduce unnecessary load on your website. Another option is to provide a public link with all marketplace domains in CSV format, similar to Namecheap. The file could be updated every 30-60 minutes.

    @mddanishyusuf @Cloudflare @Namecheap split between cf and porkbun. dont put all your domains in one basket, especially the one you use to log in to the domain service.

  • ADesignerDarkly
    D̸̖͌a̶̞͊r̷̙͒k̶͇͝ḽ̸̃ÿ̸͈́ (@ADesignerDarkly) reported

    @Hexangelo5 You are right about that! Pulsechain,com is registered through there, as are lots of other pulsechain project websites. While Namecheap built its brand on privacy advocacy (e.g., fighting for customer data protection in courts), control now sits largely with a Luxembourg-based PE giant whose incentives are financial returns, not ideological privacy maximalism. The registrant data required by ICANN lives in a system where EU corporate oversight meets US legal demands. In an era of rising data breaches, surveillance, and regulatory flux, relying on any large registrar under PE ownership means trusting opaque boardroom decisions with your identity footprint. Diversifying to independent or privacy-first alternatives reduces single points of failure.

    @Namecheap Hello Namecheap Support, I am writing to follow up on my suspended account regarding ticket [NC-MRN-7300]. I have already submitted the requested information and documentation. Could you please provide an update on the review status? I urgently need my account access restored so I can continue my work and meet an approaching deadline. Thank you for your prompt assistance.

    @Namecheap It appears "temporarily" fixed, know this...the biggest reason I will likely be leaving, isn't so much the repeated issues, but the outsourced tech support, of people that know absolutely nothing! It's pathetic, and IDK why my former webmaster chose Namecheap.

    @PersonaIData It’s been like $10 for the past 10 years so not terrible but yeah it’s just my custom email domain from namecheap Cloudflare allegedly cheaper so I’m gonna transfer out

  • thesysgoblin
    SysGoblin (@thesysgoblin) reported

    @sattyyouneed GoDaddy is ****. Has hidden fees and is the most expensive option out there. Porkbun is cheaper than namecheap, almost equal to cloudfare but with namecheap's ease. Never tried Hostinger.

    @_swanand vaguely familiar with dns enough to get my work done. Had added Custom vercel DNS on namecheap (now that i open namecheap and see). Did this few months ago so no recollection except i dont remember having issues with it. Have two custom domains added on Vercel.

    Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported

    @Namecheap Oh FFS so it's caused by Right Clicking to Copy the password. If you just double click & "ctrl c" it does not add "Refresh" to the pasted text. I have never ever encountered this bloody nonsense before & so not understand why any developer would think this is acceptable.

    @CryptoCloaks Namecheap robs me more than any other company. I’m not doing **** with these domains but BUT I’LL BE DAMNED IF I LET ANYONE ELSE **** MY *******

    It doesn't matter how great your content or product is if your audience never sees it. ​The fix requires updating your technical security keys inside your domain host (like @GoDaddy or @Namecheap) so providers know you are a trusted sender.

    @defi_oasis @katerleonid I would really love to connect - discuss. How many have Namecheap done this to? You can't host minimum bid, no reserve auctions and cancel the winning bid when the bid is met & you don't like the final bid price - then reauction the domain. NC is based in Arizona. @AZAGMayes

    @Namecheap apologies for the false statement. I got emails from you with refunds for the domain subscription and jumped to conclusions Turns out... the IP I got from @digitalocean for hosting got re-allocated to a different project. Updating records with NC's Basic DNS to fix

    @yfly58 Nice one. Boss I need help, I'm trying to set up a business mail. I bought a domain on namecheap, connected it to the Google workshop. I have been trying to activate the Gmail but the MX record I created on namecheap is not working and the activation is failing.
