I got a homelab, at the moment I am only running some local stuff and tailscale to reach my stuff remotely.

I can use tailscales ddns, but I would like a real domain. Is there a domain registrator that works with dynamic ips? Or do I need to use a CNAME instead of A record?

with IPv6 you are able to address your internal network devices directly without port forwarding. Just make sure your router and other gear support it so you have everything you need.

Yea, my stuff supports it. But I never checked out how the ISPs is dealing with it. I will check it out!

If you have a static IPv6 address you can host your own authoritative DNS locally and use it for IPv4.
