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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

What TLD did you choose on porkbun? Maybe it's a national TLD that requires your ID. I have .EU, .me and .org domains with them and I was never asked for an ID.
I have bought two dozen domains (with common TLDs) on Porkbun and have never been asked for KYC.
I was going for one of the 6-9 digit .xyz domains. I can't check exactly what the message said since it have me the option to delete my account, which I did, but I believe the gist of it was about fighting against spam
It’s for the cheap “1.111B” 6 or 7 digit xyz domains. I think it’s a recent thing, but they’re basically being bought up en masse and used for botnets/spam, so as an attempt to stem the flow the .xyz registry asks for ID
I went for an .org and the same happened to me. After digging, Porkbun says is an automated flag of suspicious account, irrelevant to the TLD.
