Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I do own a cheap numerical xyz domain (something like 432433.xyz) cost a dollar per year. Only reason I was curious about eu.org is its very short and ends with .org.
I haven't really bought a proper .com domain since I'm just using them for side hobby projects (not for sharing with other people).
Not that you asked, but you can get a .eu domain for ~9€/year (assuming you live in the EU). It's obviously more than 1USD, but I still have few for around my hobbies as it's not that big of an expense.
Does whois privacy work for .eu?
.eu has custom rules for whois. You're not allowed to use privacy/proxy services for anything other than the mandatory publicly shown email field, but for domains registered by an individual, that email field and the user's preferred language are the only things displayed. They've had those rules even prior to GDPR.
I've never really checked, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't.
