  @Namecheap worst

  @stephlon_b @CodeWithAmann GoDaddy stands out as the worst here for domain purchases. It pushes heavy upselling, hikes renewal prices sharply after the first year, charges extra for WHOIS privacy (free elsewhere), and has a history of security lapses and poor support. Cloudflare wins for value—domains at true cost with top-tier security. Namecheap is budget-friendly for starters. Hostinger is reliable, especially bundled with hosting.

  @melvynx Namecheap ain't buggy. You might find it boring but buggy? No. And it has the fastest support channel among hosting provider

  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

  @adahstwt Cloudflare for price and DNS. Porkbun for the experience. Namecheap for bulk. GoDaddy for — actually, never GoDaddy.

  @melvynx Say why? Tell your story with Namecheap. Don't just tell us it's the worst

  Temitope (@TemitopeJuba) reported 27 minutes ago

  @RaenestApp Your customer care is ignoring me! I made a payment with my virtual card for a Namecheap service. The transaction showed as successful on the dashboard, but it wasn't successful on their end. I made a complaint but still no response. This is scary!

  If you start an app now, please don't use: 1. Supabase = you will regret it. → use Convex, Neon, Better-Auth instead 2. Clerk = this is the worst choice ever → use Better-Auth instead 3. Supabase Storage or AWS S3 → use Cloudflare R2, this is the cheapest you can have 4. Namecheap: laggy, buggy, boring → use Porkbun or Cloudflare 5. MongoDB = just don't

  I 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.

  From running Meta Ads and TikTok Ads to paying for Netflix, Spotify, Apple Storage, Telegram Premium, ChatGPT, Konami and even tools like Hostinger or Namecheap. Your digital life depends on smooth online payments 😌. With a virtual card designed for online use, you avoid unnecessary international payment issues and keep everything running without interruptions 🙌.
