I've had troubles and downtimes of my #selfhosted external services on a daily basis and for quite some time now. Decided to try another #DynDNS provider and switches from #duckdns to #ipv64. Everything looking real good and I haven't had any downtime since yesterday.
Today's battle: renew a #LetsEncrypt certificate when I use #DuckDns and don't have an #ipv6 address...
i have been using #duckdns since… forever. unfortunately, in the beginning i've opted for twitter id as my authentication method, — for some years now i've only kept twitter profile only for this! now, there's no clear way to migrate to another id provider, no is there an id option independent of external services.
thus the question: are there dynamic dns services out there like duckdns (donation based) but with email registration?
Had a 'fun' time when duckdns was down this morning. Maybe it's time I run an alternate service just in case.
i think i just should tell #godaddy to go musk themselves -- they're just milking me out shamelessly in the best practices of «it's just business, no hard feelings but your ass belongs to us now, forever»; one .info #domain name one-year renewal fees over time:
2019: 29,24$
2020: 32,24$
2021: 35,24$
2022: 42,78$
2023: 42,99$
i'm weak, i'll renew this once... probably for the last time. i don't do business online, so a #duckdns url will do as good, right?
> Any DDNS service recommendations?
What do you need it to do? I went through a similar search a couple of months ago and couldn't find a service that checked all the price/freedom/privacy boxes I wanted—so I ended up writing my own. If your use-case is similarly simple, it might work for you https://github.com/codesections/d5
If I hadn't written my own, I probably would have gone with #duckDNS, but couldn't find enough info about it to feel really comfortable
@grainloom asked how my #d5 project compares to #duckDNS, and I thought others might be curious
tl;dr: d5 connects you to your home PC without updating DNS records (or involve a 3rd party)
With DuckDNS, you set a cron job (or whatever) to ping DuckDNS's server. It stores your IP address in their DB and updates DNS records.
To connect to your PC, you run `ssh $NAME_YOU_PICKED.duckdns.org` (or something else if you're not using SSH). DuckDNS redirects this to the current IP of your PC
(1/n)
Any thoughts on good (and privacy respecting) dynamic DNS providers?
I'm tempted by #duckDNS, but I only know what I've read in a little bit of research
