I have an HP mini PC behind the router, noip.com, no money spent
I used noip.com for like 30 or 60 days. Then I got really annoyed at having to renew the DDNS every 30 days. After switching to duckdns.org I haven't had any problems whatsoever. It's completely free and you don't have to renew anything manually. You obliviously still need to have a script running to update the DDNS though, otherwise it wouldn't be very dynamic would it.
Same with the HP mini PC. But I have a $12/yr dotcom domain and a script on my server updates the DNS record anytime the IP changes.
My router can update the IP on its own if you configure properly
I recommend cloudflare WARP
My mail lived on an Intel atom based mini itx machine for years. I wanted to play with breakup by replication and bought a cheap shell. Now the cheap shell is my only mail server
Well... electricity.
Yes, of course, but that mini PC uses 15 watts maximum. My main PC uses way more that that
