So lemmiverse, my pxtl.ca domain has officially been booted off of Google Domains (welcome to the Google graveyard, Google Domains) and now has been moved into Squarespace, which is expensive.
Anybody recommend a good cheap .ca TLD domain host? One with a decent API for dynamic DNS so I can keep my home subdomain? I have a couple of pi4 servers in the house that could be tasked with pinging an API endpoint to notify the domain host of my IP.
thanks in advance.

First off you should realize that the registrar’s and domain name servers don’t have to be the same. Feel free to use any registrar (ex: namecheap, gandi, etc) and host the domain name server anywhere else.
Secondly, if you want a good API for dynamic updates, I’d recommend looking for something that supports
nsupdate
, which is bind’s built-in update mechanism.
