Well yes I know, but there is a difference between using a domain bound to me as a person and a random string of numbers that changes every 5 minutes
Chances are you've had the same public IP for a long time. Mine hasn't changed in 2 years.
@chronicledmonocle @Vinstaal0 I used to work for a dial-up ISP. Every IP is registered to an account, if you're going through your ISP (as opposed to, say, coffee shop or hotel wifi). Though the people who have the information are different (ICANN/registrar vs your internet provider), there's no anonymity in your home IP address even with CGNAT.
As far as your domain, you should have privacy protection enabled so people can't find your personal info via whois.
That was the case when I lived with my parents, but now it changes every 5 minutes sadly.
So I had to shut down my Minecraft server etc for now because I am on a 5G modem which makes it really annoying to open up ports and point a domain to your IP
If your IP changed every 5 minutes, you would not be able to have a voice call or anything similar. Your IP probably changes every 24 hours
I just checked, yes it is every 24 hours, but I have to restart that thing regularly so that it is why it feels quicker I gues
