Real domain with dynamic IP (self.selfhosted)

I got a homelab, at the moment I am only running some local stuff and tailscale to reach my stuff remotely.

I can use tailscales ddns, but I would like a real domain. Is there a domain registrator that works with dynamic ips? Or do I need to use a CNAME instead of A record?

I used No-IP for this very thing many years ago (using a domain on a server with a dynamic IP, anyway). I don't know how it is now, but a quick search shows it is still around.

No-IP has been great for me for about a year now. No complaints.
