A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I got a homelab, at the moment I am only running some local stuff and tailscale to reach my stuff remotely.

I can use tailscales ddns, but I would like a real domain. Is there a domain registrator that works with dynamic ips? Or do I need to use a CNAME instead of A record?

If you don’t mind that it’s Google, then Google Domains has exactly what you’re looking for.

They literally just killed that.

[–] ImInPhx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well shit, I guess I gotta start looking for a replacement. It’s one of the few Google services I still use.

Thanks for the heads up, must has missed that news.

Heh, no problem!

As for where to go, people seem to really like Gandi, also keep hearing good things about Porkbun, I myself am very happy with INWX. Take that for what you will :p

Gandi was recently purchased, and and is slowly going down the drain. I moved all my domains and emails to porkbun.

[–] 2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Ouch. Good to know.

[–] ImInPhx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Heh. I actually have all my other domains with porkbun and have had a great experience!

I setup my ddns domain with google before I moved to porkbun so I never looked at those features. I’m about to revamp a lot of my setup and now have more to do… I’ll check out inwx.

Can you tell me a bit about INWX? Likes, dislikes, how they do things etc.? I'm also looking into an alternative to Gandi, I've narrowed it down to INWX vs Netim (I have lots of European ccTLD) so far.
