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.

In search for free domain I got IPQuick. It gives a random domain for any IP4&6. I know not reliable for commercial use but I just want a domain for nextcloud,fediverse and mail.

Questions 1.Is not IP keeps changing in short time will I need to Keep generating domains? 2.Any one using it?

It's a few euro per year, plus you can mutualize the cost with your family, take a domain name with your last name, this will allow your whole family to have firstname@lastname.yourcountrytld.
I just looked for my lastname, it's around $10 per year.
I'll repeat this again, but it means you will own this domain name, you have legal ressources and big companies won't be able to take your mail address from you.
Else, use duckdns if you really don't want to pay anything.

You just made a mistake into saying what domain name you will take, someone may buy it before you in order to extort money from you.
It probably won't happen but...
