I moved from Dyn to cloudflare and have been really happy with the change. Cloudflares interface is much better, every time I wanted to add a record in Dyn I had to hunt around to figure out what service i was using and which admin interface to use.
The only issue Ive had with Cloudflare was that some of my records had the CDN setting enabled accidentally (orange cloud icon) which broke my reverse proxies. Once I figured out what the issue was it was a quick fix to disable on all domains.
We moved our DNS from Dyn as soon as there was discussion of Oracle buying it. It's too bad really, Dyn was a decent provider. Maybe Oracle will let them continue to run on their own for a while. I can imagine them rebranding the DynDNS service at some point and offering different subscription fees.

No offense to Oracle, but I'd rather not continue my dynamic DNS services with them. What's everyone else using?
Is it worth hosting my own? I have a VPS for web hosting, etc, and could put something there.
