> I might as well self-host.

Then do that, nobody is stopping you.

My point is not “wah wah I have to self-host.” I maintain a CMS backend for a living. I know how to host a website. I’m just saying that this transition has been made particularly annoying for the hobbyists being left behind, because it’s costing not only money but also time. There’s no “just let me pay for the existing service” option. It’s like an acqui-hire where they shut the service down instead of just keeping it running and taking people’s money.
