gollark: I host my site off a dynamic IP using the magic of dynamic DNS™. The main downsides of that are that there's some downtime when my IP updates, that my dynamic DNS provider is probably less reliable than a non-dynamic one, I can't really do things which require a static IP rather than just a static-ish domain, and I need to have a script run to update DNS which takes some nonzero amount of effort to install.
gollark: I don't think most VPNs will let your stuff listen on external ports. Also, they won't assign you a fixed IP *either*.
