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

I run ddclient on a local machine and it updates my Cloudflare DNS records if my IP changes.

OPNSense has it built in too, if you use it. So does PFSense, I think. Been a while, might be misremembering.

I do this too. I proxy my DNS which means my home IP isn't exposed

Jup, I use my pfSense as DDNS client with Cloudflare
