@neil I have self-hosted stuff in the past, and occasionally think about doing so again for some stuff. But less and less of my computering is recreational and I choose to pay companies to worry about everything for me rather than spend my spare time doing more of what I do when I'm working.
Which is, of course, a kind of privilege in itself.
None of that is a criticism of course, just a reality that I've resigned myself to and remind myself of every time I think "oh, I could set that up myself".
