Yeah, phones are quite capable now. I ran a MC server just for me and some friends and it seemed fine.
I tried another server with mods and it exploded. Mine is quite small: 3GB RAM, so not much for a modded server.
I would host a lot of shit on my phone werent it for my ISP which only provides IPv4 and also puts me behind CG-NAT.
Ipv4 is fine for hosting, just use a dyndns provider to send your current ipv4 to and it should work.
Not with CGNAT
His Router should have a publicly reachable IP, otherwise he wouldn't receive packages, right? Why would CGNAT keep him from using that?
Because CGNAT means that their router does not have a public IP - just like your router has a single IP that is shared between your devices (using NAT), their ISP shares an IP between multiple customers (also using NAT, it's just called carrier-grade NAT to differentiate who is doing it).
So their "public facing IP" is an internal one? Even the v6 one?
The ISP gives their modem/router an internal IP and routes traffic through their datacenter to them and other customers via one shared public address. Also IPv6 is not always an option, I had to activate it on my ISP's website but it was useless in the end because I can't get an IPv6 address on my phone
It is shared between many different devices.
It is typical something like double or triple NAT
