I want to try out some things with a secondary domain. I’d prefer ethical and non-shady providers. I have a fixed IP and a VPS to go with it, so it’s really only about the domain. A subdomain of my current domain is not enough. A subdomain of the provider would be OK but not ideal.
Even paying very little is not an option right now - maybe later.

Doing some preliminary research, the keyword seems to be Dynamic DNS even if I have a static IP. There are providers but those that pop up easily do not instil much confidence.

I want to hear the Fediverse’s opinions! I haven’t found any recent posts about this.

TIA

    I use free.nf for free subdomains and free hosting.

    Don’t know how ethical or not ethical they are.

    Edit: infinityfree is actually the name, they offer different free subdomains on some set of names they own. free.nf is one of them.

          Are you saying website owners are always located in the country their .tld belongs to?

          🤯

          I’m looking for solutions here, so I did go to the actual site and checked before I wrote the above.

            I’m saying that the TLD .nf is for the Norfolk Islands and not the Netherlands, nothing more.

            That probably also means that Norfolk Islands is the legal authority over domains under that TLD regardless where the organization may be.

            Anyway, I just wanted to be nice, but alas…
