I would like to host my own web server with a domain name I purchased but my public IP isn't static.

DNS-O-Matic (recommended by CloudFlare, among others) combined with SWAG and Authelia will handle dynamic DNS, reverse proxying, SSL certificates, and MFA. SWAG (nginx, Let's Encrypt and Certbot) and Authelia (MFA) run nicely in a 2 container Docker stack.

Mine have been running for ~18 months on my NAS, though I have a fixed IP so no longer use a DDNS provider.
