I run my own infrastructure on a Hetzner VPS, mostly because I like understanding every layer of what I ship rather than trusting a black box. I'd like to move to a dedicated server eventually, but I refuse to pay the current hardware prices — inflated by an AI bubble that has nothing to do with what I actually need a machine for.
