I have always done self hosting. You don't need the most new hardware. And if you enjoy it too it is a win win. For me I host over 60 services my self. For me and family and some friends.

I'm definitely not running newest HW, I'm running on 6y/o HW and refurbished HDDs bought 2 years ago. But even if my power was free (it isn't), and nothing breaks (it will), I would need to run the server for ~10 years to make up for the subscriptions it let me drop.
