I don’t running your own server is the only way and frankly I don’t think it is the best way. Division of labour is a great idea, and many great programmers are poor system administrators (at least, Linus admitted it openly [1]). There is a middle way between having everything with the advertising agency or Microsoft and having to be MIS department on your own. Lately, I prefer services which I actually pay for. Then I have at least some guarantee that the provider would treat me as a customer not as goods to be sold. I have switched all my Email/AddressBook/Calendar/Webhosting needs to Fastmail, and all my source code hosting to Sourcehut. However, the main idea is that once you get outside of the Microsoft zoo, you can see that there is the whole open world out there.
