Yup, CGNAT sucks. But STUN works fine for me, and most games support it, so it's not a huge issue.

I could pay extra for a public IP, but for the same price I can get a VPS and do other cool stuff, so I just went the WireGuard VPN route. Same end result with a little more latency, but also more flexibility. I host a few static sites directly on the VPS, with everything else going through the VPN, so that's nice.
