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.

Is it one that you just use and works just fine? Or one that has proven to be reliable and responsible if they do a mistake and only want to satisfy you as a customer?

Been using namecheap for awhile, but thinking of migrating to Pork Bun.

I usually pick whoever has the best deal when I want to register a domain.

I used Namecheap for several years and was happy with it, but the numerous price increases finally pushed me to switch. I recently decided on Porkbun after the many positive reviews I read online. It is affordable and has a very clean interface that doesn’t constantly nag me about purchasing other services. I’m really liking it so far.

AWS (Route53 specifically). Not common but my personal lab runs on AWS so it's nice to have a place for everything.

Joker.com. I've been a happy customer for years and years.

I’m new to this entire field, and only recently set up my NAS with DDNS and everything to get around my CGNAT. I decided to go with Cloudflare since it was a name I knew well, and reviews were good. It did feel a bit overwhelming at first, but it was pretty easy to figure out what I needed to do and what I didn’t, and I am pretty happy with it.

What all did you have to do in addition to DDNS to get around CGNAT? Are you using something like this? https://github.com/mochman/Bypass_CGNAT

1984.hosting, because it's the only one I know that does not require you to run any propietary software.

Feature rich and never had an issue with them. Prices are fine imho.

I have only just recently started domain shopping. Before that I just used the registrar from my web hosting. I settled on trying NameCheap, although their records UI is a bit confusing sometimes.

Goddady. It's cheap they have my local currency.

I've been with GoDaddy for going on 20 years.

Its worked well for me. I started off with their web hosting, but these days they just handle my domains. They've got an API so you can use them as a dynamic DNS provider as well.
