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've been using duckdns for a few years and I was happy until today. It is not working and I want a backup.

Which do you recommend?

Namecheap + the dynamic DNS client in pfSense. No issues sinve I set it up years ago.

Before that it was a cron job that updated through the google domains api.

Same here. Got a Namecheap domain, that I've eventually migrated to a Cloudflare nameserver. Updates are ran by ddclient on the server itself
