Most of the reputable TLDs like .net can be had for around 10USD a year from providers like Porkbun.
Wait, could I set it up with something like duckdns?
Theoretically yes, but it is probably not a good idea to use it for email since duckdns might not exist in a few years meaning you cannot log into services that used that email.
No. You don't own that. Plus you need direct control over DNS records since you need to set up MX and TXT records and I think some other records as well.
Oh, ok
