Most people don't know how to self-host. Most people don't know what self-hosting is. Most people don't know what hosting is.
This post is a prime example of a weird logical fallacy that seems to permeate the tech world in particular, and which goes something like this:
For me, this task is trivial.
That is because I have spent a lifetime developing the knowledge, skills and experience to make that task trivial.
I lack the self-awareness and intellectual honesty to understand that.
Therefore, I assume that anyone for whom this task is not trivial is simply lazy, and has only themselves to blame for their failure to perform this task.
Therefore, I am very superior and very smart.

To add between 2. and 3.: I choose to spend my limited time and energy on managing self-hosted infrastructure rather than on other hobbies or life demands.
