You can also use exFAT if you want cross platform support. It's had a Linux kernel driver for quite a while now.

Yes, they do require you to use their nameservers unless you have a business account.
Maybe we shouldn't make most of the internet reliant on one company.
Some people modify phones to run without an internal battery. That's a bit of a pain since the screen will have to be detached and there will be wires hanging out though.
Laptops are easier. Most of them will still boot with the battery disconnected. They will usually show a warning during boot and some of them will require you to press a key to continue booting. Running without a battery may limit the performance, especially if you're not using the highest wattage charger the laptop supports.
I used to use dynv6, but I started having issues about 2 years ago. DNS records would just stop resolving until I deleted and recreated them. Their forum has been broken for years, so there's no way to get support.
If you only need 5 records or less, give FreeDNS a try.
That means apps tend to stop working if the developers don't keep updating them. Mobile operating systems much, much worse backwards compatibility than windows. If the device hosts its own website instead of using an app, it will most likely work fine decades from now without any updates.
Mobile apps bit rot pretty quickly when they stop updating them. A web UI would be better. A server or internet connection is not needed, a web UI can be hosted directly on the device.
Not when it comes with the huge downside of non upgradeable RAM. I will carry around a huge power bank before I buy a laptop with soldered RAM.
That's right around the melting point of some types of lead free solder.
That's a for LAN use. The other IPv4 example ranges are 198.51.100.0/24, 203.0.113.0/24 and 233.252.0.0/24.
There are several IP address ranges reserved specifically for documentation and examples such as 192.0.2.0/24 and 2001:db8::/32. That's what they should have used.
They've had it for years. It can be difficult to sign up for though.
You get a lot of resources for free, but don't use them for anything important. They can nuke your account for any reason.
