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:

  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.

Seeing the news with Google domains, I’m looking to move registrars, and was wondering who everyone uses.

I recommend namesilo, and the reason is because they give privacy shield for free in all your domains, also good prices, and also you can pay with bitcoin at market price. I kind of hate to put my personal data and my financial data in the same spot, that's why the bitcoin part is important to me.

Another vote for Cloudflare as suggested by many others

I've been using Joker.com for so long, my first bill might actually have been in Deutsche Marks.

I mainly stay with them because it just works, but also haven't seen an option out there so much better that it would be worth the minor hassle of changing.

But you might want to look at one of the comparison charts people posted here (though I don't see Joker on those) and see what services you want (whois hiding, dyndns, etc.).
