Every page off of my (static HTML file!) home page[1] is actually a distinct microservice sitting behind a reverse proxy. I can throw some new experiment together, built it with whatever tooling I want, give it a port number, and let nginx route to it.

It removes a lot of friction from "I wonder if making this service is a good idea?" and because I am self hosting I am not tying myself down to any of the "all in one" hosting platforms.
