Self hosting is really cool. However when it comes to static hosting, apart than keeping your data at home and having fun setting up servers, I don't really see the point when there's so many free good options. I use CloudFlare Pages for my blog, their integration with GitHub is flawless and you get to host your website at edge for free.

When I need to host dynamic content, another good option is CloudFlare Tunnels (I promise I'm not sponsored by them, their products are good is all :)), so you don't have to do shenanigans updating DNS records on the fly, and more importantly you don't have to compromise your network opening up and forwarding ports.

CloudFlare is a MITM against its clients, by design. Everyone is good when things are good, but when trouble comes ..

True. Is there a Content Delivery Network (CDN) that isn't a MITM, though? Sitting between the client and server is how they work...

[AdrienPoupa]

If it comes, you switch to a different hosting provider in about 5 minutes, that's not a very big effort

I have lost count of how many sites Cloudflare has interfered with, insisting on proving myself human yet again, during the past three months. This is about the time I started using the LibreWolf browser (even disabling adblocker). When I open up Chromium, the problems stop.

I don't want to use Cloudflare.
