I do this on my home network which has a Dynamic IP. I wrote a script which I cron to check and update it if it changes https://github.com/MajesticTechie/CloudflareDynamicDNS

Skip intro is being built into it natively so this is likely the groundwork for that

I use Synphonium on my phone, it links to my Jellyfin and I can sync/sort and download directly from there. I use just use Spotify free in Firefox with Ublock on PC, that way I get no ads

I know, I was just tryna point out the silver lining

Atleast it’s future proof

Thanks!

It sure is: https://github.com/MajesticTechie/CloudflareDynamicDNS

If this is for DynamicDNS, I host my DNS at cpiudflare for my domain and use a script which performs a lookup every 15 mins. It uses CF’s API to then update the record if it changes.

For DNS resolution, I use pi hole quad9 resolvers

Edit: sorry, just re-read and realised your talking about DNS hosting for a domain. honestly I use my Cloudflare or my domain provider. Given a single IP is a point of failure, it makes sense to have multiple NS on different networks/IPs. You also have to take into account Glue records and while not required, reverse DNS is also good. If you have Dynamic IPs it’s not worth it since glue records will need changing and those are manual each time

I found this the other day: https://revolt.chat/

I have yet to deploy it but from what I’ve seen it’s a discord alternative

I also suggest cPanel. You can get a web host with Cpanel from about £20-£30 a year.

setup emails, wildcards, host a site, let’s encrypt options, etc. May as well get the most bang for ya buck.

I’ve never seen a message denied for DNSSEC. It may be a thing they do in the future, I do think all domains should use it but it’s not something that’ll deny a message.

Mail-tester is just for outbound deliverability, nothing else. DNSSEC is really just for security practices. That doesn’t really effect outbound deliverability though which is always a bigger concern for me.

Try using this and sent it a test mail: https://www.mail-tester.com/

It’ll check blacklists, configuration, DNS and mail content itself for any issues

I’ve just deployed a Synapse container to work with matrix/Element, only because that’s what the guide I was using suggested. Is there any benefit to switching?

The only port I open is for wireguard. That way I can access all services on my LAN. Wireguard is also very secure and requires keys based authentication so is hard to brute. It also allows me to secure myself if I ever need to join WiFi or an untrusted network

Honestly any service that offers cPanel can allow mail hosting and a catchall.

If you just want a basic IMAP/SMTP service with nothing fancy I know these guys do allow catch all mailboxes https://hostinguk.net/email

As far as I’m aware this won’t be possible. You’d have to rebuild the site from scratch and manually copy images and text over.

As for SEO, I would expect a lot of the meta data to change since wordpress will be interpreting a lot of that.

As long as the domain stays the same, you could would probably get away with redirecting links, however I would expect your ranking to drop for a bit after the immidiate move regardless.
