Host on your own hardware to avoid server fees. Use a free dynamic dns service, I used duckdns for a few years before getting my own domain. Are there other fees I’m forgetting?

I mean, you're forgetting the additional power costs that you'll have to pay for running your own hardware, plus maybe ISP fees if you want to upgrade for better upload speeds.
