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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

There are plenty of good options out there! Many use Cloudflare, though they are another giant. I've been happy with dsec and freedns, and would recommend both.
Ive used freedns for over a decade; it's simple and straightforward. Their free tier is plentiful, and their subscription costs are reasonable.
I recently moved my self-hosted services to dsec so I could better automate SSL certs. It's been nice and easy too!
I've been using desec for a couple years as well. Great service and features considering its free.
Thank you!
