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'm currently on the lookout for privacy-respecting domain registrars. What are you guys using and why?

Edit: I've registered my domain with Porkbun. I got a really cool one, it's called reallyaweso.me!

Easydns.ca, no privacy issues. Nothing about me personally in the who's db (.net tld)

INWX because it's a local provider which seems decent.

No particular reason. They seem pretty alright.

Was on Namesilo. No complaints, save for the slow website. Changed to porkburn because it was a bit cheaper.

I stick with the big name registrars and then just use the cheapest for that TLD.

I use Infomaniak, as they follow swiss privacy laws and had the cheapest registration for .ch when I registered it first.

name.com. I don't remember why I picked them, but they do no BS and the service is fine.

Ive been thinking about #dnsregistrars and #ssl certificates lately. Does anyone know a #coop #registrar ?

Not sure why you got downvoted, wanting to do business with a work co-op is valid. I don't however know of one :/
