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.

Namecheap is a quality service for sure and I’ve used them myself, but they’re only cheap to buy. They really stick it to you when it’s time to renew.
Not really? Their prices are in line with any other registrar.
They aren’t. I have a handful of domains on Namecheap still due to the convenience of their api, and each one is between 15-25% more to renew than popular alternatives like Porkbun, Namesilo, or Cloudflare. Now for a single domain we’re talking a difference of $5-10 a year. So for a single domain, is that price difference a dealbreaker? Probably not. But the more domains you have the more it adds up.
That's true, hadn't looked in a year or so but they are a bit higher now!
