How should I handle DNS on a home server?

I've been using Hetzner for some time, but now I want to host everything myself at home.

DNS was easy with Hetzner, just point the domain to Hetzner's nameservers, and from there to my server.

How are people doing this for home servers? When there's not access to something like Hetzner's nameservers.

Is there a free/cheap nameserver I can use to point at my home server's IP?

Where else on the web does everyone hang out?
  • I only hang out here, been spending way less time browsing online, which I'd say is a good thing. Been playing more video games, and even reading.

    Also I'm curious about Discord, when people say they hang out there, do they just find a channel they like and keep up with the chat all day?

  • Everytime
  • Are people not getting tired of all this stack overflow praise when that website is complete garbage that marks every question as duplicate of something asked 11 years ago.

  • What's your favourite podcast at the moment?

    I've been looking for more podcasts since I started going on daily walks.

    Mine are:

    • Conan O'Brien needs a friend
    • Wolf and owl
    • Off menu

    Netflix is planning to raise prices… again
  • Just finished watching Peaky Blinders on Netflix, guess that was the last good show on there, now they keep pushing Beckham and reality shows in my face, like I care about that, can't find anything good. I've cancelled it.

  • What's a good alternative to Gmail?

    Trying to de-google and looking for an alternative to Gmail.

    Don't mind if it's a paid service if it's robust.

    [Feature request] Non bold titles

    I really like Liftoff, has everything I need, plus open source.

    The only thing bugging me at the moment is the bold text everywhere. The headers are bold and the titles are bold. Just not very easy on the eyes to scroll through.

    Just wish I could change to non bold text, just like I can change the text size.

    Why do I have to select language every time I post a comment?

    In my profile settings I've got "Interface Language" set to "English", but every time I comment I have to select a language, otherwise it won't post the comment (and there is no feedback saying it's the language that's causing it not to post).

    How are you finding communities to subscribe to?

    I've been going to different servers and finding communities to subscribe to. But that's quite slow if I'm looking for something specific and don't know what server it's on. Also quite a few duplicates.
