One perk that someone told me about is that you can use your domain to get around not having a static IP (because the DNS will compensate).

If I were to get a Cloudflare domain name then what would be some other pros and cons?

    One thing that wasn’t mentioned: I can use *.internal.domain.com and not have that routed on public DNS (using my own DNS with pihole + unbound or adguard). Of course still valid certificate for that domain.

    It feels good using a domain name I can type it and secondly *.domain.com IS publically routed, meaning all external services go there. The internal stuff I can only access via Tailscale (which automatically uses my dns).
