That can also be a nightmare.

Do you want git hosting, CI/CD, etc. to be among your core competencies? Because that's what this entails. You need a full team to staff it and be on call.

I guarantee you that those who self host will have just as many breakdowns. Five nines is hard, especially when it's not your main job.

Yeah, and don't forget to run the shell script in screen as well so you can detach it /s
