I took it to mean that they got COVID and were out of commission long enough that the domain was sold by the time they “came back round to reality”.

How the fuck is using a mail domain and having a site up for 8 years squatting?
How did my comment suggest that at all?
Choose your words better and get that corporate boot out of your mouth.
Squatting.
Because a corporation wants it more than an individual?
I didn’t even particularly blame them in my post simply responded to someone who said the ‘solution’ to losing your access to gmail is to have your own domain in the first place.
I was very ill, they of course did send the grace period emails, it’d actually be Wells Fargo fault if anyone for not approving the charge for year 8 for no reason other than ai pattern matching, but the context of the thread here was that.
Fucking squatting? Have some empathy.

Breaking the site guidelines like this is definitely not ok and will get your account banned, regardless of how bad another comment is or you feel it is. If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.
No I don't see how their post allows one to infer that Namecheap "immediately" resold the domain. Their policy is a 30 day grace period, and within that 30 days the domain should become non functional, so if you're actively using it then you would know something is up.
Sounds like jamiek88 was squatting on a somewhat desirable domain and is just sad they couldn't follow some basic instructions.
I have no idea what the "because of COVID" thing is about.
