I’ve been using Hetzner for some time, but now I want to host everything myself at home.

DNS was easy with Hetzner, just point the domain to Hetzner’s nameservers, and from there to my server.

How are people doing this for home servers? When there’s not access to something like Hetzner’s nameservers.

Is there a free/cheap nameserver I can use to point at my home server’s IP?
