I was using NoIP until I saw that it is listed as frequently abused: https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/blob/main/adblock/dyndns.txt
The purpose is to setup a URL to use for my self-hosted nextcloud instance (storage). 😊
nsupdate.info or freedns.afraid.org (the first one is open source and has a main instance)
mmm they blocked nsupdate.info in the adblock you list, wtf
is a community project…
Desec.io when they are open for taking in new members. Fantastic service. Run by a bin-profit-equivalent in Germany.
@Creat @akunohana deSec ist also on the list (https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/blob/5ca6caa2cd85ee3e21b61eeb410eae021f6ec098/adblock/dyndns.txt#L280) which is not unusual for free DynDNS Services.
+1 for desec, I use them alongside Porkbun as my registrar. Great service, great UI and they’re working on keepass support for login. They also do ephemeral login sessions by default which rocks.
Cloudflare, get yourself a cheap .com domain for less than $10usd annually and a docker image will do the rest. Google (or Duck) cloudflare-ddns docker. Super simple, and it’ll run alongside your nextcloud without issue
Second this. You don’t even need the endpoint to be publicly accessible. Use DNS-01 with letsencrypt and have a local dns server that internal hosts resolve that hostname to a local Ip.
@akunohana I don’t know of any DynDNS provider that isn’t regularly abused 😐
I’ve been using them for close to 10 years without issues. I appreciate the very simple update system. Free, but I’ve been donating for a few years now.
