hi everyone,

I was just about to self-host a Ghost blog but then was warned that my ISP might change my external IP address at any time, so I would need to pay for a static IP address.

Is that true?

(I’d not seen much about that in stuff I’ve looked up so far about self hosting)

    I’m having a good experience with cloudflare, using ddclient on a cron job

    To clarify: it doesn’t matter much what your router supports if you have a server with ddclient (possibly in Docker container). Then you can choose whatever provider you’d like, and there are tons of resources on ddclient.
