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.

Correct, but not the whole story.
If your registrar goes down, and you have your authoritative DNS anywhere else, then literally nothing happens. They just register the domain for you and give you an interface to pass your 'glue' records up to the TLD root servers.
If those glue records point to on-site DNS, or anything that is not your registrar's DNS servers, then your registrar being down is inconsequential other than that you would not be able to update your glue records, or renew your domain.
A separate question of "what happens if my authoritative servers go down", is answered above.
The two are not one in the same, though they can be.
