    @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

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

      Shall have to investigate...

      Found some info here:

      https://12ft.io/proxy?&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pehubeurope.com%2Fmontefiore-investment-sells-majority-stake-in-gandi

      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)

      More info here:

      https://domainnamewire.com/2023/03/02/total-web-solutions-acquires-domain-registrar-gandi-forming-new-entity/

          Porkbun DNS API has been added to Cloudron, so I guess I'll go for that.^^

              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 Please, what? Thanks for the information. I wasn't aware of this as well and it's a big no go for me. I will check this.

                  @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?

                    They use Cloudflare's DNS services but traffic is not routed via Cloudflare.

                      @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?

                          How did you configure the Cloudron with Epik during the initial setup?

                            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?
