Hey guys, I am quite new to the whole self-hosting world so I haven’t done too much. Before I dive in deeper though, I’d like to know how I should choose my domain name vendor. Specifically, I only want a domain, no VPS or other hosting capability as I got some old laptops running at home I want to use for testing the waters.

Thanks in advance!

    Ovh is a good option as their domains come with a free 5gb email and also IPv4 dyndns that’s easy to set up. Certbot also has an Ovh api extension for easily making SSL wildcard certificates via the dns-01 challenge.
