That way, the only port that’s open on your router is a Wireguard port and they don’t respond to sniffing.
If that’s not a possibility, I had a ddns service before that for like $2/month
maybe is specific to my country, but here the majority of network plans have a CGNAT down the line. So we have a private ip at the router and there is no way to reach it, unless you reley the traffic to a third point.
if you want a public ip (even dynamic) you need to pay up
No he doesn’t mean a static IP, he means a publicly routable IP. That’s not something DDNS will help you with.

I have a vps for 2€/month. It’s not a powerful machine, but easily enough to host wireguard and caddy.
