CNAME not accepted :(

I'm using Afraid.org for my subdomains and I can't use CNAME Because Afraid doesn't allow it šŸ˜¦ EDIT: I pinged the CNAME records and put that ip in as a A record this is what im getting: mjfw.404.mn, mjfw.atmax.net I can use any other though! Thanks!

you would need to use cloudflare's nameservers, they have a guide for that here https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/zone-setups/full-setup/setup/

if you want to save every penny, you can get any domain between 000000.xyz ā€“ 999999999.xyz for ~$0.97/year but obviously, not everyone wants a domain made up of just numbers

mjfwā€¢10mo ago
