Seems to be online, but honestly duckdns isn't exceptionally reliable...
Check out hurricane electric. You can activate any A record as a DDNS record: http://i.xno.dev/u/fpaXcG.png
Once the A record is activated, they'll give you a key that you can simply update with curl
or something similar. I created a function for my shell and just run it via crontab;
fn ddns { xhs -4 "https://dyn.dns.he.net/nic/update?hostname=domain.com&password=password&myip="(xhs -4 -b https://myip.addr.tools/plain) }
and then just execute:
❯ ddns

No dependencies, no software, and he.net is an ISP/Transit/COLO so they're highly available (https://he.net/Hurricane_Electric_Geographic_Network_Map.jpg). I've been using their service for 5-6 years and never been down.
