Comment on Do you selfhost your own blog/website?

No, with these reasons:
- Bandwidth isn’t plenty
- My “uptime” at home isn’t great
- No redundant hardware, even a simple mainboard defect would take a while to replace
I have a VPS for these tasks, and I host a few sites for friends amd family.

Weeeell, there’s a school of though leaning towards the opinion that using VPS is still self-hosting ;)

And it’s a school of thought I happen to agree with. :) But OP specifically called out homelab vs VPS.

I agree, but I understood this question in the context of a homelab.
And for me, a homelab is not the right place for a public website, for the reasons I mentioned.
