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?


Can you do letsencrypt dns challenges against the free tier now? This was one reason I moved to duckdns. Plus I kept forgetting to login to keep the account alive so it would just stop working until I logged in and reactivated. Duckdns do emulate that experience with their random downtime though 😂
