What would you recommend as an alternative? Right now I'm just using them for DNS.
I really don't know what to recommend to other people. I use opennic.org for DNS. And I don't use any tunnels, I just do port forwarding on my router. I have an internet connection that allows that.
1984.hosting has a freely available to use DNS service for domains. They're a good company that does what Njalla say they do but without the bullshit of stealing peoples domains.
How is cloudflare stealing domains?
No, Njalla is. They have a history of stealing domains and banning users without explaining why and absolutely refuse to look into why a user got banned in the first place. On top of that generally terrible customer support.
I've had the complete opposite experience with 1984.hosting, support has been great and they even support GPG keys to one of their emails if you want to keep your inquires encrypted.
Interesting. I hadn't even heard of Njalla, but now I know to avoid them, thanks.
desec.io is also a good option
That actually seems like a solid option. Do you happen to know how well it integrates with Traefik and the like for setting up reverse proxies?
If you use caddy it works like a charm out of the box with their desec module. If you run caddy with via docker compose you can integrate the respective module pretty easily, check the ”Adding custom Caddy modules" section on their docker hub page.
