    I’ve always found it weird that its called “GoDaddy” and I’ve never heard anyone question it. Like why on earth is that the name of the company?

      I remember the era of “GoDaddy girls” and a different woman on the homepage each month. I actually emailed them feedback that it made me embarrassed to use their service in the workplace.

    Okay, I have no opinion on the whole but European thing… but OVH is garbage.

          I’ve spent way too much time and effort on OVH first line support. But then again, I’ve seen worse supports as well.
