I recently was gifted a raspberry pi 5 and was looking at domains to buy to host my own instance. What happens to my instance if the domain expires?

Also, do freenom and .tk just not allow new domains to be registered anymore?

    I would spend the money on a domain. There’s lots of new TLDs to choose from and some are cheap. A .stream domain is $3.99 at namesilo as is .link.

      The .stream domains renew at almost twice the cost of a .com after the first year. Most of the cheap domains renew at a much higher price.

        I was going by sorting tldlist by renewal price but I see now the price doesn’t match. .link is cheap to renew.
