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

      You need to have an authoritative DNS server listening and answering somewhere. Is this running at your home?

      If it is, then try querying the IP directly. The most commonly used tool is “dig”, but other ones are available. It should look something like:

      dig @your-public-IP subdomain.eu.org
