In recent times, my opinion about self-hosting has changed. Instead of paying for multiple services, I am now renting a decently sized VPS on Scaleway, and hosting all my projects on them. It’s been three months, and it has been working out great for me.

I will applaud anything embracing self hosting, but I feel like author is forgetting the experience gained during those years. Things have been simple for way longer than docker existed.

Yeah, sounds like they may not have been very comfortable with the tools. Which is fine, but nothing has really changed.

I think that what changed is that more people gained more experience, and of those people, a lot like to share their knowledge.

So the wealth of information and workaround is much bigger now. It makes it easier to get into devops, even though it hasn't dramatically changed over the years.
