- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
Use your domain for your primary email address, have some regrets about it, but never be able to walk away..
That's what I do. Anytime I need to sign up for something with an email I do:
I use wildcards for some stuff, but I mostly just use [email protected] and have my real email for friends and family private. It's not liked I get emails from friends and family anymore anyway. Everything is iMessage or SMS.
Same. Crazy obvious which companies are getting hacked or selling my info.
Soooo. Iβm dumb. I host my overseerr on my domain that just routes to my local IP for my local desktop. How do I get email on this domain without spending dumb money on an email hosting server?
PurelyMail is a great and cheap service. It's like $10 per year. You just set up some records (MX and TXT) on your domain provider and that's it.
You could also self-host email, but then you need a server that's always powered on and it adds much complexity, so I suggest to use a managed service instead.
The good thing about using your own domain is that you're not tied to any service. You could migrate to any other provider (such as ProtonMail, FastMail, etc.) without ever changing your email address on all services.
On the flip side my husband has held on to the domain he got for 22 YEARS., and never did anything with it. We finally got our emails up and running with it last week. Donβt let your dreams be dreams!
You know what's worse? Starting a successful one that makes a whole ass salary and then having google updates smack it the f out.
What happened?
I'm gonna guess search engine down ranking.
lol Iβve been squatting a couple of domains since 2001, my day will come!!!
More like "Dammit, my domain auto-remewed again. Oh well, it's only $12. I'll cancel next year." (It's been 5 years.)
Nooo, one day I'll have the time to build my writing utensil repair business.
And then I'll need the domain penisbroken.com
Don't worry, the dream lives on!
VancesCouchSloppySeconds.com is still available!!!
I'd be tempted to buy that. When you visit it's just a white page with a leather couch in the middle of the screen, everytime you click the couch it would moan seductively and every fifth click would give a squelch sound.
Oh this one cuts.
Wanted to start a blog about my weight loss journey. Lost the weight and never started the blog. Still paying for the domain 7 years later.
Only thing left to do is gain the weight back so I can try again!
This is why I never bought a domain. Can't give up on your dreams if you never pursued them in the first place!
Mine is on automatic renewal.
To a debit card on an account I closed months ago
Check. Mate.
let the ghosts fight it out
Fate will take it from here lol
bought my domain in July... still havent finished my website...
Give it a couple years⦠and then a few more.
Why are you stressing this nice Lemming to fast track their site? It'll take the standard 30 years. It's fine.
Wait you guys made websites?
CatBagz.com is in this photograph and I don't like it.
What, no one really wants to purchase cat faced bags from a guy on the internet that doesn't like cats all that much and doesn't use bags all that much and can't social media and mostly just wants to stop being a fucking company shill but no I'm so fucking good at it that's my job and my life forever.
Fuck you, dreams. I'm taking cat bags to my fucking grave.
At least my red bubble stickers sell.
I let one of mine expire a few years ago. Finally decided I wanted to try to register it again, but a squatter is now sitting on it asking for something like ~~$10k~~ $3.6k.
Edit: just double-checked, they lowered the price to only $3595!
And that's why I'll never give up my domain. Those vultures will immediately snap it.
This whole thread is a gem. So many amazing websites. It's inspired me to make a website and hopefully be a repo for all your websites like the old internet
Is this the sticker of a hobby that you want to be part of?
MY FUCKING WEBSITE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE CAT BAGS FOR SALE WHAT WAS I THINKING?
I still have a number of domains that I registered aspirationally for projects I never really started.
Easy decision, I pay every time.
You can pry cuteredpanda.com from my cold dead hands.
But if I don't renew what will become of sneakymonkeybutt.net
my domain is my media server, so id rather not end my domain.
I'm in this picture and I don't like it.
