  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

  @Karakehayov Spaceship is the best, namecheap and Afternic are the worst.

  @austinginder That's a crazy one! I've seen a number of bad things on GoDaddy as well. Generally try to get clients to move to PorkBun or NameCheap... I'll even help them for free!

  Domains aren’t expensive… bad registrars are. Use these instead: Cloudflare Namecheap Porkbun Save money → invest in building.

  @BenjaminHouy That's normal, United Domains is one of the worst companies out there. Always use @Porkbun or maybe namecheap. If you have issues with United Domains you can also use reclabox and publicly complain about them, United Domains don't like public shaming and they will insta fix it

  @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.

  @YashHustle_22 I've had great experience with Namecheap after moving from GoDaddy who ripped me off for years no matter how many times I caught them and told them lol. Bluehost isn't bad either, but namecheap made email easy as well if needed. 5min setup for all.

  @booleanbeyondIN Namecheap because we have a partnership, the support is much better than the other 2... Though hostinger and godaddy are supported on our systems too....

  @mittxldesigns I don’t think their domain is with Amazon. My friend who works in Zepto told they had brought the domain from Namecheap. For some reason they took down that domain. So they brought some other domain and has hosted

  I've been with @Namecheap since 2010 and I buy all my domains through them. Well, because of a payday issue, I've lost one and I'm not happy. It's now in auction and I likely won't be able to get it back. I had a website attached to it.

  Why is everyone saying @Namecheap is bad? Used them for a decade at this point and have no complaints.

  @itsaaroshi Fr, straight honest answer: Cloudflare for DNS, management, and zero sketchy upsells.Porkbun & Cloudflare all the way.Porkbun for cheap, clean domain pricing + free privacy. Namecheap mid, Dynadot solid but UI clunky.Never touch GoDaddy (scammy upsells, overpriced). No cringe hidden fees, no forced add-ons, just simple domains.
