There's a thread posted where a bunch of people have lost their minds over Godaddy just removing access out of nowhere to the API if you own a domain with them, and limiting access behind a paywall/tier. They may host DNS, but they are very clearly going down the same death spiral all Cert providers are going due to shortened time intervals and publicly available certificate providers.

THE CAKE IS A LIE!
