I live in a rural aussie (with no fibre options) area with the worlds shittiest internet and especially bad upload. I been self hosting a bunch of things and simply just struggling through the shit connection.

Will be getting starlink to remedy the internet issue but it seems i need a business (priority) plan to get a public ip so i can access my services from the greater internet. This is however more expensive and i would like to avoid the additional cost if possible.

I was thinking i could wireguard proxy from my server at home to a cheap/free vps to bypass the restrictions but i suspect that would mess with how nginx on my home server manages ports etc. Plus i use my own hardware not just for security but also no recurring costs otehr than power so paying for a vps just to proxy seems like a waste.

Also been having dns issues with duckdns vos dynamic ip starlink seems not to support static ips so how should i resolve this issue.

Any advice or reccommendations?

I think starlink has ipv6 so can i use that to fix my issues? I assume i would drop ipv4 support but fuck it.

Not sure if it's actually feasible today, but in the future when all the Internet routing and consumer devices are compliant, something something ipv6 has enough address space for every device many times over to have a unique address. I'm guessing there's still too many links in the chain that won't be setup for ipv6 to work, but it's worth your research.

Probably more realistic to work out the complication you're concerned about with reverse proxy and a VPS + VPN.
