Domains are a total shitcoin - I purchased a domain through a new account at Namecheap - I set up the DNS and launched a new website on my new domain - I verified my email address for my Namecheap account - My site went live 12 hours later - My account was flagged for potential fraud because I used an email proxy - My domains were revoked and PUT BACK ON THE MARKET FOR SALE - My transaction was refunded - My site went down I then had to provide them either the transaction ID from my card statement or send them a photo of my PASSPORT. I gave them the transaction ID 🖕 Then, I had to: - re-purchase my domain before someone else bought it - reconfigure my DNS SMH. Let's replace this garbage with nostr please

I don't think many people know just how centrally controlled most of the internet is. Hopefully nostr fixes this.
