First off you should realize that the registrar’s and domain name servers don’t have to be the same. Feel free to use any registrar (ex: namecheap, gandi, etc) and host the domain name server anywhere else.
Secondly, if you want a good API for dynamic updates, I’d recommend looking for something that supports nsupdate, which is bind’s built-in update mechanism. It’s supported almost everywhere, including by let’s encrypt clients like Lego.

Where is the crypto documented? I’m immediately dubious of messengers that do not provide LENGTHY documentation about the crypto. Did you roll your own? Are you using libraries? Which ones? Etc… It’s not s good start to see that you have the self signed certs hard-coded in the repo…

Let me tell you, it’s a lot easier to do so when you are still young, while your brain is more plastic, and your reaction time is faster. Maybe you won’t use it much, but it’s always nice to have. Easy to garner good will from friends… You can split long drives for vacations with friends, you can DD if you find yourself in a situation where the driver is intoxicated and you are not, if you become a home owner you’ll be able to rent a van to go get materials at the home center, etc. You never know what life throws at you.
Trust me, just do it! You don’t have to change your lifestyle because of it, but you’ll innevitably find moments where it will be really useful to have!

Do you think Indigo is still only for X10?
Obviously not, but they do, still, prominently feature X10 on the front page…
Anyway, good for you if it still works for your needs, I’m just surprised it’s still around. I hadn’t heard from it in nearly twenty years! No reason to take it personally.
Wow I didn’t know Indigo was still around! I used it for a few years in the early 2000s when X10 was still viable. Have you considered migrating to something more modern like Home Assistant or OpenHAB?
