[QUESTION] Static IP vs Dynamic DNS? - eviltoast

I’m trying to self-host some stuff on my Raspberry Pi (i.e. web server, lightweight matrix server, etc) and every time I get around to try and set it up I forget that I have to do this lol

Do you guys recommend going full send and contacting my ISP about a static IP or should I just pay for a Dynamic DNS service?

    Get a static ip if at all possible. The work arounds with a dynamic IP are simply not as good. Or if your ISP and router fully support IPv6 you could alternatively go down that route.
