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.

DNS is complicated and takes some time to really absorb. Places like Cloudflare make things very straight forward. It's beat to think about what you want to accomplish, then start looking for guides on each of the individual pieces (authoritative server, master/slave replication, recursion, DNS over tls, dnssec, etc). Take it in baby steps and WRITE NOTES. The now taking will help you absorb the details and will leave you a paper trail of things when you get something running and then have to go deal with other life, then come back to it in a few months.
+1 for writing notes.
Many a time I've had to reverse engineer and relearn something I did months / years ago
