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.

Not OP but a lot of people probably use pi-hole which doesn't support wildcards for some inane reason
I switched to Technitium and I've been pretty happy. Seems very robust, and as a bonus was easy to use it to stop DNS leaks (each upstream has a static route through a different Mullvad VPN, and since they're queried in parallel, a VPN connection can go down without losing any DNS...maybe this is how pihole would have handled it too though).
And of course, wildcards supported no problem.
That's my case. I send every new subdomain to my nginx IP on pi-hole and then use nginx as a reverse proxy
That was my exact setup as well until I switched to a different router which supported both custom DNS entries and blocklists, thereby making the pi-hole redundant
I run opnsense, so I need to dump pi-hole. But I don't have the energy right now to do that.
Pi-Hole was pretty straightforward at the time and I did not look back since then. Annoying, but easy.
