IDK man. I set up DuckDNS 2 years ago and since then I had to update HomeAssistant settings just once when they introduced public address in settings. No failures, no problems. Rest is done automatically and my alert for expiring certificate never triggered.
I’m happy that you found solution with Tailscale but DuckDNS is also good and reliable in my experience.
I haven't had the same experience with DuckDNS. It was great for a few years, but for about the past year it would randomly go down (preventing access) or my domain would get flagged as spam. I ended up buying my own domain from cloudflare but I'm planning on investigating Tailscale at some point.
