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.

Why not just pay $2/yr for a domain on Name Cheap? They have a dynamic DNS solution.
Because I am school student (16yr) from INDIA. Here u have to give record of each penny to parents and If say them that I just want a domain for self hosting my personal stuff I will not be able to say something else.
I was where you are too and 2$/month or even per year seemed crazy to me if I could get it for free
If you're at home and want to point to your home IP, but it constantly changes, the easiest is Dynamic DNS.
You can find more.
If you have a stable IP, there also free top level domains .TK / .ML / .GA / .CF / .GQ over at https://www.freenom.com/ . Their frontend is down sometimes, but once you have a domain and are point it to an IP, you should be dandy.
Good luck :)
