Decent ISPs that use CGNAT should also have IPv6 available, which doesn't use NAT at all. In the case of CGNAT, I'd really recommend using IPv6 rather than hacking around CGNAT.
You can self-host Tailscale by using the open-source Headscale project.
I'm behind CGNAT with months between IPv6 prefix changes. Having a separate publicly routable IP for each host is awesome.
Tailscale causes heavy battery drain on my phone (Pixel 4a GrapheneOS) so I'm now on always on plain Wireguard, which only needs 1% of my battery.
Sadly my mother doesn't have IPv6, so accessing e.g. Jellyfin is not possible.
