As I don’t have any VPS, it sounds like I’ll have to rely with cloudflare’s tunnel then? That or register with one listed here? github.com/savyasathe/free-vps
Comment on What to do after getting a domain name?

In your scenario, I would prefer to tunnel to the outside, as it could be risky to just open a port on your router and open a port on your computer. In this case, pointing the IP to a vps that your PC tunnels to or putting the record in cloudflares DNS, that way no automatic port searcher will try to nuke your network. There is dynamic DNS too.
There is cloudflare and other options too.
Edit: I do this with cloudflare, but privacy is very much not given with them.

Using some very basic security, like minimal services and keeping stuff patched and having backups, and you’re probably fine. I’ve run stuff locally at home for decades and never had a security issue as far as I know. (I did have a problem with a hosted server that I shared with some friends 20 years ago, because at that time updating Fedora was a hassle and we let it get behind on updates.)

An unauthenticated tunnel is still an ingress path same as an open port, just with more steps.
