I am looking to try out a basic #homelab #selfhosting server with the most basic and simple setup possible. The server is already fully setup, up, and running. Does anyone have a recommendation for dynamic DNS provider? (EU based only, preference AT)

@hacrods I had first tried some DynDNS services but they were tricky, unreliable and I didn't like reliance on a third party anyway.
@hacrods depends how basic you want because your basic might mean insecure, unreliable etc.
I now have a more sophisticated setup but started with using Mythic Beasts as my domain host because they they provide an API to set / update DNS records. I'd no sooner got that working with an OpenWRT router than I realised it wasn't secure enough, and now have a cheap VPS running Pangolin instead.
Both solutions handle all the obstacles that ISPs have put in the way that make this difficult.
