Namecheap tech support is great. Loving their dynamic DNS application too since I'm taking advantage of my 500mbit up/down running a server at home. I've had no problems with Namecheap since I started using them a few years ago and finally migrated everything over to them a few months ago.
Goodbye Godaddy!! Good riddance!

Also this is just another example of how Twitter shouldn't be used for any serious type of communication.

What originally drew me to their service was 2FA, no additional services bullshit (i.e. I'm never going to buy "web hosting" from a domain registrar, I don't want the current-customer-spam they all use to cross-sell) and decent prices.
They've recently started selling "web hosting" but so far it hasn't really been pushed, and their focus seems to be very much on domains still.
Very happy with Namecheap [1]. I have 3 domains registered with them, one of them going back a long time. Never had problems with anything from search to payment. They have 2FA support that works with the open source TOTP apps too. [1]: https://www.namecheap.com

Different service. They got most of the data back in the end. And you should always have backups somewhere else. I'm not sure why this is relevant.
Saying that people should have geographically diversified backups is like saying you should always read the T&Cs of every website you interact with. Yes, you definitely should. But many people would rather just trust the brand, and a trust broken is not easily fixed.
And understandably, that broken trust has a knock-on effect for other services in the same brand.
