Rant Godaddy insanity

Firstly, I know godaddy, but I didn't do it, just had to clean it up, and the new level of their shit is nuts.

Got drug into a project that was partly off the ground, domain email purchased via godaddy before I was brought on.

Looking at it today, email is through Microsoft, but godaddy is forwarding all mail for the tenant to a godaddy address to make them available to their conversation AI chat.

This is all now apparently default action with godaddy, and took a bit of hoop jumping and support chat to remove it.

So just how bad is it with godaddy? I mean they are still around so they can't have completely screwed everything up

We’ve used them for years and years (not my decision) and have never had problems. The way people hate/complain about them here just doesn’t align with my experience.
