Are you able to reach the service using a railway provided domain?
Also, you added the root level domain in the railway dashboard, but created a cname for www
Your cname record on squarespace should be @ not www
Squarespace doesn't support root level cnames
Their docs say that you can use @ for cnames
since when, damn
ignore me then

Interesting, I'm going to do it this way and see if it works
If it doesn’t work, you’re best bet is to use a service like Cloudflare for your dns
I'm not convinced lol
It doesn’t say it does support it, but it also doesn’t say that it doesn’t support it
trueeee
I don't think Squarespace really accepts this form

Perfect. So then in this case, you would want to update your name servers to use Cloudflare, and setup the cname in their dns portal

It will pull all your current dns so everything should continue to function
