    That Namecheap outage? Total gift 🎁 Seriously, it made me realize with all this constant AI watching over my network, I don't even need those clunky old tools like Snort anymore. 💪 Time to upgrade! 🚀 #AIVision #Cybersecurity #FutureIsNow

    @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!

    @Porkbun @spaceship @Namecheap 3/ Secure free privacy Never pay an extra $10/year for "WHOIS Privacy Protection." Good registrars bundle this for free. Turn it on immediately to hide your phone number and email. If you don't, your phone will be flooded with spam within 60 seconds.

    @Namecheap @Cloudflare unfortunately namecheap's web app is so ridiculously slow on top of the price hikes.. this is going to take a while

    @AgentGoodbye @Namecheap That’s exactly the point. A tiny credit doesn’t come close to the real damage. $3k lost in a day — potentially $9k+ if the outage continues — is serious business impact, not just “a few hours of downtime.” Namecheap may not be able to cover everyone’s losses, but after an outage like this, the compensation should at least reflect the scale of the disruption.

    @420GHz @Namecheap I know this, but apparently the Porn Bots trying to advertise Porn Cam links seems to have been halted right now as I've not seen any of those bots on here, wonder if this means the "Stripchat" bots are using the service for their Cyber Crime activity and may have overloaded it?

    @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?

    Dang! Some of my domains never recovered from the @Namecheap downtime.

    @LocalSEO_Guy @batesbn I like Namecheap for a registrar. Cloidflare for dns. But I rarely get to choose the hosting unless its a new build. I cover all the domain migration stuff. Godaddy isnt a terrible regisrar, but i dont like waiting so long for a record to propogate. Their builder is 💩 tho.

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap All my sites went down RIP. But I still love namecheap. This isn't their fault.

  • jai_ozzie
    Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported

    During the outage, emails were inaccessible and external senders received bounce-backs. I tested from Gmail and Yahoo. A client also received a bounce-back. Namecheap’s CEO @HilanKlein publicly acknowledged the email outage and said affected emails may be delayed. 2/4

    @namecheapceo123 17 days locked out of my whole @Namecheap account. I reported a problem with ONE domain. You locked all 7 and every site on them. I withdrew the report Aug 24. Still locked. No reply, no timeline, no auth codes. ICANN case 01641788. Unlock me or let me transfer out.

    @richardnavanda @Namecheap Yeah, seriously. They’ve put us through hell since yesterday. 😑 Our VPS went down, came back with issues, and even now one of our production websites is still offline. It’s been a complete nightmare.

    Day 5: Building in Public 🙌🏻 If you want to start a startup in 2026, the cost of building has never been lower. Claude = coding ($20/mo) GPT API = AI features (~$20/mo) Supabase = backend (Free) Vercel = deployment (Free) Namecheap = domain (~$12/yr) Stripe/Dodopayments = payments (2.9%/transaction) GitHub = version control (Free) Resend = emails (Free) ProductBridge = feedback (Free) Clerk = auth (Free) Cloudflare = DNS (Free) PostHog = analytics (Free) Sentry = error tracking (Free) Upstash = Redis (Free) Pinecone = vector DB (Free) You can get surprisingly far with ~$40/month.

    @NubartEN @Namecheap @namecheap - the overhaul of the Privateemail browser is terrible. It doesn’t;t work on tablets - please can someone tell me when this is likely to be fixed !!!!!!!

  • KCG3D
    Kevin Guaman (@KCG3D) reported

    i 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.

    @TwistedFocus99 @Namecheap Cost effective. And mostly stable with responsive customer support. While we've had systems issues before, this was a major **** up.

    Update: EasyWP and some services were fully back online around 1:20 PM IST on Aug 14 roughly 19 hours after I posted this. The whole Namecheap outage was fully resolved on around 15 AUG 5AM IST.

    @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.

    How to start your solo business with AI tools ChatGPT / Claude = ideation, writing, research. Cursor / Windsurf = coding and debugging. Supabase = backend and database. Vercel = hosting and deployment. Namecheap = domain. Stripe = payments and subscriptions. GitHub = code hosting and version control. Resend = transactional emails. Tally / Typeform = forms and lead collection. PostHog = product analytics. Sentry = error monitoring. Cloudflare = CDN and DNS. Upstash = Redis and rate limiting. Pinecone = vector database. Loom = screen recording and async updates. Notion = docs, wikis, and SOPs. Slack = communication. Canva = design and branding. Billbooks / Wave = simple accounting. The idea is simple: one person can now use AI plus low-cost SaaS tools to cover product, development, deployment, payments, marketing, analytics, operations, and support—without building a large team from day one. #AItool #AI #productivity

    @Namecheap what’s being done about the outage that we experienced and the business crippling that was shared across the board? We haven’t heard anything or at least I haven’t and we still owe bills. We deserve considerations for that experience.
