Good evening everyone,
owner of neetco.de here. Germany really does not like anything related to hosting.
as of August 8th, I lost the rights to the neetco.de domain. according to the .de registry rules, I am required to renew the domain 5 days before it's expiry date, which is August 13th. the auto-renew did not go through because of a technical error. I have opened a ticket with Namecheap and evidently, if the domain is in redemption status, it will cost $200 to obtain.
that all sucks a lot, but that does not mean:
- any user data is gone. the server i run is still functioning. all user data is backed up like usual.
- i am in any legal trouble with any government.
- i have been issued any takedown requests by any copyright owner.
i know most of my userbase is from /g/, so i thought i would post here also. hopefully it is not in redemption status. if it is, i will be forced to switch domains.
cheers, /g/entoomen. you can talk to me personally on:
- IRC (#neetcode on rizon)
- email ([email protected])

bumping, hopefully at least one person sees this

Courtesy bump.
What were you NEETs coding?

Bumping for good OP

What the hell is neetco.de?
>>
>>56037617
neetcode is a git hosting site with free private repositories, webhosting, continuous integration, and more. all free and privacy respecting, and not politically affiliated like some other sites.

Well, the SJWs have the domain now.

Looks like it's back up?
>>
>>56036972
I remember when you first launched neetco.de (under neetcode.xyz or some shit) back when you had trouble getting an SSL cert and literally, since the inception of the site, nobody cared.

>post here also
Where else did you post if I may ask? I need another technology place to go to.
>>
Fun protip for you: change the whois information on your website before letting it expire, otherwise Namecheap exposes your information during the autoRenewalPeriod even if you had WhoisGuard enabled.

I posted on twitter, but I guess that reached a limited amount of people also. So I guess you could call this the first actual post on someplace that matters

>>56037911
That's odd. Maybe they were able to recover it? I should be getting an email updating me

Why would it be redirecting to a blank nginx install, tho.

For some reason nginx does not like to redirect you to the proper https version of the site. that happens on first visit, and it's just me being lazy. https://neetco.de works fine

currently mobileposting, sorry

>>56037974
also, thank you for this tip. it sucks that i gotta deal with this; why 5 days? why not an exact week?
>>
>>56038185
This is not only for .de domains. Your old domain, the one on the xyz tld, is currently also in that state, and it likely will stay that way for another few weeks or months.

This is why I used gitgud instead of neetco.de
