I’m new to self-hosting. All I did so far was install Ubuntu Server, enable SSH and tried setting up DuckDNS, which I could not set up automatic update of my IP following the documentation, neither updating manually through the website, which even though seems to be changed, when I ssh the domain, I get the initial IP
Anyone using DuckDNS? Is it working properly for you guys? Did I just mess something up?
What other DDNS providers would you recommend me?


I’ve been using desec.io since it’s european, non profit and privacy oriented. Bring your own domain though. Works well, although my caddy plugin has problems getting certs sometimes. My pangolin instance never has any issues getting certs so might be caddy desec plugin specific.
