Oddbean new post about login | logout Is it just me or every time you want to purchase a domain and don’t buy it immediately after looking it up, suddenly it’s unavailable 😑
It happens to me with airbnbs 🤔
Apparently iPage has been acquired by BlueHost and I was literally trying to check out, page went blank and now the domain is gone. But this has been happening a lot, I’ve noticed the past year or so, then suddenly you have to negotiate to buy the domain.
Godaddy was notorious for doing that in the past, so they can resell it at a higher price. Not sure if it is still being practiced by them 🐶🐾🫡
Oh I seriously have that problem with them, but it seems to have gotten much worse now, Ipage is now Bluehost, literally two websites in one, front end is just a farce, two landing pages in 1… and check this out: https://image.nostr.build/91998312bf5223c1fb5870a885fd28c09ae81eaf6104fed1770402ff87acf5a2.jpg

No, they stopped that practice
I been a customer of their’s since literally last millennium, not always a happy one but never unhappy enough to move.
That’s good, that was one problem I had with them in the past and moved away 🐶🐾🫡
