For me, it is a balance between what I am trying to accomplish and the time/energy/maintenance I am willing to put into accomplishing that thing.

I used to self-host a personal website on Wordpress, but now I farm that out to a static site hosting provider because I would rather spend the time building the website instead of spending the same time maintaining the hosting.

I self-host a kubernetes homelab environment because that is a personal investment in skill that i don’t want to pay exorbitant cloud prices for.

GDI, I have been using internal.registereddomain.com which is 5 wasted characters…

Humanity solved all of those engineering challenges in 1942 with Duct Tape.
