This happened to me on two occasions about two years ago, I can’t remember the domain names I was trying to register. In my case, the godaddy website I used was Godaddy.co.za (probably because I was based in South Africa). I thought it was a fluke or mistake from my side at the time, but seeing that others have experienced the same issue then I would say it’s a deliberate bad business practice by godaddy.
I've had a look at the demo site and it seems simplistic and impressive. I have been looking for a good HN clone that I can use for my blog. How can I install or port your version for a language other than Finnish? Couldn't find a helpful guide on the GitHub page.
First of all, thanks for taking interest in the project. I wasn't quite expecting someone posting it to HN. suomi.dev is a two week project into learning Elixir language, and as such, I wouldn't recommend using it as-is without auditing the source code first. Unfortunately the locale is hard-coded into the application layer itself, so skimming through the controllers or html templates for example could be a bit difficult for someone who doesn't understand Finnish.
You're not the only person to raise interest for a drop-in "HN-like" platform for their specific purpose though, so I'm considering turning the project to be more adaptable.
If you're not planning to use the current version of the project for anything _too_ serious, I could possibly work on a separate branch where I'll translate it to English. How's that sound?
