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:

  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 have a few unused Domains and I would like to subrent them for free for interested selfhoster. Any recommendations on how to do so? I tried weebly but it seemed way to complicated. Should I just go with a website and then an email contact?

How does a subrented domain work? You hold on to the whois, and collect a periodic fee to point the whois NS records at the buyers choice of servers?

Given that so many things secure access based on domain ownership, isn't that crazy risky for the renter?

Would you offer Dynamic DNS like www.duckdns.org?
