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 got a homelab, at the moment I am only running some local stuff and tailscale to reach my stuff remotely.

I can use tailscales ddns, but I would like a real domain. Is there a domain registrator that works with dynamic ips? Or do I need to use a CNAME instead of A record?

Does your ISP support IPv6?

I think I can ask them about it. Never really used ipv6. Maybe that's even better. Then I can maybe use more than one IP even. I don't know how the ISPs deal with it. Do I only get one for my router, or can I get a bunch of them.. hmm

with IPv6 you are able to address your internal network devices directly without port forwarding. Just make sure your router and other gear support it so you have everything you need.

Yea, my stuff supports it. But I never checked out how the ISPs is dealing with it. I will check it out!

If you have a static IPv6 address you can host your own authoritative DNS locally and use it for IPv4.
