Before, I used to use duckdns. Completely free and super simple
Nowadays I just have a docker container that updates my A records on my domain directly through namesilo's API. Took like 5 mins to set up the config

duckdns and ydns
I'm still using noip.com. There may be better/cheaper options these days, but this has worked well for me for years, and I don't see the need to change.
