Easy and accessible self hosting isn't the primary concern.

It's much more private and secure to run that Minecraft or Mumble server on an encrypted overlay network like via headscale + tailscale rather than exposing both services directly to the entire planet.

But again, the primary concern was only ever address space.

What I tried to express was privacy being the primary concern. The easy and accessible self-hosting on old hardware would be the uses of a home network beyond superficialities like consumption and commerce. Privacy wise headscale as a solution is still not quite there, because it either necessitates an additional third party to host the headscale server and know about all my friends, or jank like dynDNS.

The additional security gained by getting everyone involved to set up and configure separate VPNs for different community utilities is not worth it.
