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

I've been using freedns.afraid.org for about a year now.

I've also been on freedns.afraid.org for many years. Back when I switched from dyndns, it wasn't possible to get Let's Encrypt certificates on afraid.org's domains, but that might have changed. I worked around it by taking a domain I already owned and using a CNAME to point it at my afraid.org domain.

I use Let's Encrypt on my domains, but they're domains that my afraid.org subdomains point to.
