    I used noip.com for like 30 or 60 days. Then I got really annoyed at having to renew the DDNS every 30 days. After switching to duckdns.org I haven’t had any problems whatsoever. It’s completely free and you don’t have to renew anything manually. You obliviously still need to have a script running to update the DDNS though, otherwise it wouldn’t be very dynamic would it.






  • Yes, but how is it malicious to comply with the license? If the license doesn’t require the code to be usable without a backend they have fully complied. Does the license even require usable code at all?

    As long as they give the source code they are required to give I don’t see any problem with it.

    some companies will get creative with it and make their source available but in a way that is useless without the backend. And even if they don’t maliciously comply with the license, they can still charge for their services.

    What is wrong with charging for your services?

    Open source licences aren’t meant to make it impossible to earn money or anything. As long as companies comply with the licences I don’t see anything wrong with it.

    If a licence wants to make it impossible to earn money they should put that in the actual licence.
