What types of services are you not willing to self-host?
For example, something that is too complex for your comfort level, a security concern, or maybe your hardware can’t keep up with the service’s needs?

Minecraft. When I started out it was fine but when I began to get regular visitors I got DDOSed for days on end and people poking me for ssh access. Never again.
Why were people asking for SSH access?
They weren't asking, I was getting spammed with attempts. I changed the ports and locked down my server. In the end I switched to VPS's.
You get spammed with ssh attempts no matter what. Just set up fail2ban with harsh firewall rules, key-only auth, and live happy!
Been using mine using docker behind an extra vpn container...works beutifully..
Sadly my server predated Docker or I would have done this. After I left the community I think they migrated to Docker.
