Hi @Porkbun and @SlackJawedYokel ,
I don't see a Backorder service on your website. Have you thought of setting one up?...
Thanks.

Hi Nic, thanks for asking. Currently we don't have any plans on adding backorder/drop catch services at this time.

We had to make some changes, .io is still on sale for $12.67 first year registration. AWESOMENESS will no longer work, however you can use code IOFOSHO for $11.99, 2 per user and should work for everyone, even if you already snagged one with AWESOMENESS.

Curious if anyone is seeing any decent conversion rates or an uptake in enquiries using Porkbun landers and their Ai Sales Blurb feature below?

Cloudflare is currently experiencing a major data center outage, and Porkbun relies heavily on Cloudflare for DNS.

Notice on the Porkbun website:

Hi @Porkbun

The major outage at Cloudflare is still ongoing. I realize that Porkbun has become too dependent on Cloudflare. Does Porkbun have a workaround available, so that DNS can be changed again?

Hi @Future Sensors, thanks for sharing your concern and apologies for any inconvenience incurred thus far. As of the last couple years, this has been the only major issue we've experienced since switching our DNS services to Cloudflare, a far cry from when we ran our own. Cloudflare has long had a reputation for being a reliable DNS provider and even through this DNS resolution has been maintained. It does appear that DNS changes are starting to go through, however there's always the option to switch to a different DNS provider if need be.

 

[Future Sensors]

Creating, updating and deleting DNS records is working as expected again @ Porkbun, using their nameservers.

updateDNS_2: SUCCESS​

For those interested: Cloudflare co-founder and CEO Matthew Prince wrote a "Post Mortem" on the Cloudflare Control Plane and Analytics Outage, that lasted from November 2 at 11:44 UTC until November 4 at 04:25 UTC.

*Everything solved*

Thank you Porkbun!

 

[internext]

unable to receive emails (as I use that domain for my email account), so I can not longer receive the two-factor authentication code,

unless Porkbun has changed this, they do not email the 2FA code. You need Authenticator or similar
----
Edit: I see email 2FA is in beta now. Good luck getting this sorted out!!

Thank you!

I implemented 2FA not that long time ago and the codes have been emailed to me. I have no clue why the backup code is not working. Maybe I copied it wrong, but that seems odd.
