Domain A Record Assistance
Based on my browsing of others issues, I am assuming I will need to do something with Cloudflare, but I am not sure what.
I use domain.com for my domain. With railway, I have two custom domains set up with CNAME's added to my DNS records with domain.com. One is the root domain (example.com) and another is a subdomain with the www prefix (www.example.com).
When checking my sie on https://intodns.com I get several nameserver errors. After inspecting my DNS records, I believe it is due to domain.com automatically configuring a wildcard (@) A record pointing to an IP address in their personal server. As Railway uses dynamic IP's, I can't simply change the IP address that the A record points to, as I'd have to do this everytime I deploy a new version of my site.
What am I misunderstanding here? How do I properly handle this?

domain.com doesnt support root level cnames, you would need to use cloudflare's nameservers.
you don't need to transfer the domain, you only need to use their nameservers.
