I would like to host my own web server with a domain name I purchased but my public IP isn't static.

I used duckdns for my jellyfin server, but after a week or so I started getting malicious site warnings from Firefox, and had to ‘accept the risk and continue’ every time. Ended up going back to noip. It’s a pain to renew every month, but I haven’t had any other problems with it.

I use noip as well, but because I only have an IP camera on that network, and the camera has built-in DDNS support for noip. But I hate it having to renew monthly.

What do you mean renew every month?

You need to confirm each month that you’re still using that url if you’re in free tier. Otherwise it won’t be registered to you
