NOT self-hosting your stuff is OK and APPROPRIATE
put your attention and energy where you feel they are best utilized
self-hosting is but one option of many
i may run my own mini-cloud but...
i pay OTHERS to manage some of my services because my attention and energy is best served on other endeavors
self-hosting is NOT a silver bullet
fools will say it's the best option
i promise, it's not the best option unless your decision tree takes you to that conclusion
my decision tree has many variables, not all options are created equal and self-hosting doesn't always win for me
don't let the "always self host" people ruin your day
