Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

~~Google Domains because I have a Google account and buying a domain on it was easy when I needed it. I'm still on Google Domains but you've reminded me I need to continue the transfer to Cloudflare before I get forced over to Square Space because they don't support Dynamic DNS.~~
Cloudflare.
Same, Google was easy and as cheap as anyone else. Now Cloudflare
Enterprise tooling (aka a usable API) and it stays out if my way.
On Google now as well, what was the cutover like to cloudflare?
Transferring was straightforward enough, but there were a couple steps that involved waiting for things to update before you could continue and I forgot to get back to it for a while after they were done. Other than that, all my records seem to have transferred over correctly and all I had to do manually was reconfigure my DDNS client and set up email forwarding with gmail again.
Exactly the same boat. But man Cloudflare is better in every way. Having an API to update/fetch records for a zone does wonders.
