Hello zusammen, ich hab im Zuge dessen, dass Google Domains wohl aufgelöst wird, vor meine Domain dort inkl. Web- und Mailserver zu Ionos auf einen Debian vServer zu migrieren.

Hat jemand Erfahrungen ob Ionos da die richtige Wahl wäre oder ob es sonst noch attraktive Anbiter für sowas gäbe?

Gern auch Feedback ob mein Vorhaben überhaupt Sinn macht 😄

Edit: Danke für den ganzen Input. Nach ein bissi zusätzlicher Diskussion mit Freunden wirds jetzt -> Domain zu Ionos siedeln, Mailservice von ihnen nutzen, Website derweil gratis bei Firebase lassen und dann künftig auf dem Linux VPS selfhosten unter Debian.

Hey guys, I'm currently studying computer science and have used Google domains for a while to host my own website. In lieu of domains being discontinued by Google I'm thinking about moving every service I've used there to a Debian VM, which would be hosted by a company in my country, but I would have root access.

This would include a Web- and a Mailserver pretty much. I'm not a beginner when it comes to handling a CLI, but I am quite rusty and would prefer a solution that I set up once and don't have to maintain weekly to keep it going.

I'm aware selfhosting entails some kind of maintenance, I pretty much just don't want to be overwhelmed and suddenly lose access to my mails by being lazy.

Serverwise I've setup Apache and Postfix already in my studies, but I'm not sure if those are the best solutions.

I'd really love a few pointers and do's and don'ts if you'd be so kind to help me out 😄

Thanks!

(I've posted this to a different community already, but this one seems more active, sorry if you see this double!)

Edit: Thanks for all the input! I'll use Ionos to register my domain and their free Mailservice they provide with it. My website is currently still hosted with firebase, but I'll move it to a Linux VM also hosted by Ionos...
