Same here. My old Pi 4, was running HA, Nextcloud, Ghost blog, websites, Jellyfin and a couple of other small things. It did it fine, but when I upgraded to the Odroid H3 it all became so much faster and snappier.
Comment on Home Assistant, Nextcloud and paperless ngx on a Pi 4

Ive been running HA (in docker container) and NextCloud on rpi4 4gb and it was working fine, but after server upgrade (diy pc) nextcloud became much more snappy (wasnt my reason to upgrade). Not sure about paperless, but I had many more lightweight services along with HA and NC. Im also not heavy HA or NC user, just my 0.02

So I should look into hosting docket on my pi and upgrade as soon as I feel like it?

I would, but you have to decide on your own. I dont know can you afford HA downtime, how much experience you have and how much time you want to burn. I found docker frustrating to learn but super rewarding. Keep in mind Im still new.
Its best to backup and/or get spare SD card to learn how to setup everything. Be prepared for begginer mistakes, but once you get familiar a bit it will be much easier.
If you can manage docker containers in HAOS just try it. I have 0 experience with HAOS so cant help much, but I saw Portainer is available as HA addon. You should be able to manage all docker containers with simple Portainer GUI.
I had dietpi or raspbian OS with docker, docker-compose and Portainer installed. Then I started many containers (including HA) using Portainer. If you go this path you will lose HA addons. I believe most addons can be replaced with docker containers from hub.docker.com, but Im not sure about that. Ive just seen some HAOS vs Docker posts
