Self-hosted blog - do I need a static IP address? (lemmy.ml)

hi everyone,

I was just about to self-host a Ghost blog but then was warned that my ISP might change my external IP address at any time, so I would need to pay for a static IP address.

Is that true?

(I'd not seen much about that in stuff I've looked up so far about self hosting)

Wouldn't that be just for me - in my Tailnet - rather than to the general public?

    That doesn't seem to be appropriate for a specific domain. Unless I'm reading it wrong.

    We need to expose the Ghost blog on a specific subdomain of the domain we own ( blog.ourdomain.org )

    doesn't Tailscale Funnel assign a funky domain name rather than let you use your own?
