I was a happy Gandi customer, but now they got sold and domain prices will rise and they removed the 2 free emails per domain from April, and if you already had them, well you'll either have to pay or migrate emails.
They were already quite expensive, so this move does sound bullshit to me, unfortunately.
I was reading on NameSilo and Porkbun, any feedback on them? Any other suggestion outside of Cloudflare and OVH?

I'm surprised to hear any Cloudron user was taking advantage of that anyway. I guess for of Cloudron clients or something?
I'm a very happy Gandi customer and have never used their free email anyway, so I'll be staying with them.

Wait, what?
I didn't spot that bit in their recent email about prices and emails etc.
Shall have to investigate...

Found some info here:
BTW https://12ft.io is awesome - removes most paywalls by serving up a Google cache of the page (because of course people want the Google crawler to be able to access and index their site, even if they have a paywall)

I use namesilo and have no complaints. Cloudflare is a must if you want dns automation. I’m waiting on Bunny DNS to mature enough and maybe it’ll get added to Cloudron’s api list.

No it isn't.
Thankfully Cloudon automates DNS with load of different providers (including Gandi) who haven't massively centralised the web and don't have access to all your data the way Cloudflare has and does.

@jdaviescoates cf is the only option for me bcz of price, speed, and proxy support.

@humptydumpty fair enough.
But I think most people don't need it and would be better off using one of the many other domain provides that Cloudron integrates with.
This is the current list from the docs:
Cloudflare DNS
DigitalOcean DNS
Gandi LiveDNS
GoDaddy
Google Cloud DNS
Hetzner DNS
Linode DNS
Name.com DNS
Namecheap DNS
Netcup DNS
Route53 DNS
Vultr DNS -

Awesome indeed !

I moved a domain to Porkbun, and I discovered then that both Porkbun and Namesilo don't manage their own nameservers. They use Cloudflare.
I'm not happy.^^"

@ruihildt so let's say I have a domain with NameSilo, and I have the nameservers pointing to BunnyDNS. Does that mean Cloudflare can see the traffic to/from my sites?
-
@humptydumpty This is something you can indeed do.
I'm thinking of doing something similar with my Porkbun domains.@girish Do you know if the Porkbun DNS integration would still work with other NS?

I am using gandi and quite happy, but now the renewal went up 3-4 times the original price. I switched to cloudflare (one that i use for dev) and the the other to ovh. I am no fan of hetzner. Is there any other european DNS and registrar provider?
