  But as I said: once the DNS entries are set up, everything is routed directly to your machine. What runs there is completely in your hands. Same with VPS/root server: SSH is free. Pick the client you like.

  I don’t know of a single registrar or hoster that I can’t run without libre software.

    I get thy stand on this, personally I also have to compromise my software freedom to register my domains, but again OP asked to avoid X and saying after doing X you won’t have to is not answering the question.

        Ah yes, I bet thou can also skip the booting part when thou run software on thy compooter. And Jehovah (or an idol of thy choice) forbids any configuration or upgrade requiring a reboot.

        Any domain registrar/hosting provider that does not require propietary software to run?

        If thou dissect this even more clearly thou wouldof noticed OP asked about running a domain registrar or hosting provider, not using their service. Also the word was propietary.

        Now, if thou excuse OP’s imperfect English thou can find a clearer description below:

        one that can be used without running nonfree programs
