I used noip.com for like 30 or 60 days. Then I got really annoyed at having to renew the DDNS every 30 days. After switching to duckdns.org I haven't had any problems whatsoever. It's completely free and you don't have to renew anything manually. You obliviously still need to have a script running to update the DDNS though, otherwise it wouldn't be very dynamic would it.

Same with the HP mini PC. But I have a $12/yr dotcom domain and a script on my server updates the DNS record anytime the IP changes.

My router can update the IP on its own if you configure properly

I recommend cloudflare WARP

no money spent

Well... electricity.

Yes, of course, but that mini PC uses 15 watts maximum. My main PC uses way more that that

My mail lived on an Intel atom based mini itx machine for years. I wanted to play with breakup by replication and bought a cheap shell. Now the cheap shell is my only mail server

How much are you selling for?

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 13 points 2 months ago

Selling? I host things for myself, not others. Except my Lemmy instance I suppose, that's public.

This is the way. I would be lost without a domain. Even mail is selfhosted with my domain. But I only use subdomains, the real domain is abandoned.

See email is one of the few things I don't host. I host a webmail frontend, and use my domain. But PurelyMail is an amazing service that's so cheap it's basically free at personal scale with very few limits. I didn't really care to try and deal with having all my mail sent to spam.

Been with purely mail for about a year and it's been great!

I just use stalwart - mail, it's just one docker container, has bleeding edge functions like jmap and there is no need of deeper knowledge. I refer my domain on the settings and got a list of all needed dns-records.

It takes 2-4 days to get SSL and dmarc answers from the big mail-players and if there is nothing wrong with your IP or your records then there is no mail going into spam of someone else.
