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.

It looks like it’s time to “shop around”. What registrar are you guys using?

I think I will stop using Gandi. They are too expensive and don't provide much value compared to other registrars.

The price for the TLD of my custom domain doubled. With the new prices, it's cheaper for me to get the domain at OVH (cheaper than Gandi's previous price) and mailboxes at mailbox.org, than the domain alone at Gandi.

Yeah, I was registering my domains there because they are in Europe and had some extra services, I’ll be taking my business elsewhere now

They're not even trying to pretend they offer competitive domain prices anymore. Last time I renewed the prices for the 5 TLD's I use varied $15-22, this year they're all $30. That's a 75-100% increase accross the board.
