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.

Seeing the news with Google domains, I’m looking to move registrars, and was wondering who everyone uses.

I have two domains through a local Czech registrar. How do I know if it's theirs or mine (I know, I should have read the contract but oh well). According to eurid they are tied to my email.

99% of registrars do it the right way, so the domain is in your name. What Njalla is doing is not really common, and they usually market it as a unique feature.

Your email showing up at eurid is a good sign :)

Okay, thanks! Just that who.is shows my registrar instead of me, but I guess that is something data protection related?

Yes, due to the GDPR, they are no longer allowed to disclose private information.
Depending on the registrar they either respond to whois requests with just nothing or just with themself.
