What service one should NOT self host - eviltoast

Like the title says, I’m new to self hosting world. 😀 while I was researching, I found out that many people dissuaded me to self host email server. Just too complicated and hard to manage. What other services that you think we should just go use the currently available providers in the market and why? 🙂thank you

    It would be nice if we, and apps’ developers, always knew what the vulnerabilities are. They generally exist because the developer doesn’t know about them yet, or hasn’t found a solution yet (though ideally has been transparent about that). Zero-day exploits happen. There’s always a first person or group discovering a flaw.

    If being up to date and using SSL was all it took, security would be a lot simpler.

    No one security measure is ever foolproof, other than taking everything offline. But multiple used in tandem make it somewhere between inconveniently and impractically difficult to breach a system.
