Finding a new registrar/name server for .at (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi!

Maybe someone can help me with a problem I’m having, vaguely related to self hosting.

I want to use a domain with let’s encrypt certificates locally. I realise the only way to do this is a (automated) DNS-01 challenge if I don’t want to expose anything to the outside.

Those DNS challenges require my name server to have some kind of API to automate the process. My registrar/name server doesn’t have a API unfortunately.

I want to use the opportunity to switch my registrar and name server in one go, but I’m pretty picky…

My wish list is:

MFA for general account administration
scoped tokens or account for API access (don’t need or want to manage everything by API)
can handle .at domains
not cloudflare
registrar and name server should be one entity if possible
european if possible
supported by ngnix proxy manager if possible

Backup plan would be picking a registrar which supports DNSSEC for .at domains and use desec.io I guess.

But maybe the hive mind has a good recommendation for me? :)

Thank you in advance for reading! I’m aware I’m just a bit extra, but i want to be able to just ignore the whole name server and domain topic for the next ten years again if I can.

Cheers!

I moved to infomaniak because registering domains come with a free mailbox (or at least they used to - IDK if it's still like this).

It works fine with lego (as should any other supported one).

Yeah, I tried infomaniak and they were doing kyc on me. I aint uploading my id to a domain company. Apparently they do this often (not always) and they can do it any time and take your access if you dont comply.

I don't remember them asking for any ID. Then again I gave them my real name/address and I payed with my credit card so... it's not like they can't confirm it's me.

I did the same. I was not hiding any details. After I asked them about it, they said that they have to do it by law. After I told them I won't give them my id they returned my money and that was that. I don't see why there has to be kyc on normal domain...
