Cloudflare is now below 99.9% uptime, for anyone keeping track. I reckon my home PC is at least 99.9%.

Indeed. AWS too.

I feel like the cloud hosting companies have lost the plot. "They can provide better uptime than us" is the entire rationale that a lot of small companies have when choosing to run everything in the cloud.

If they cost more AND they're less reliable, what exactly is the reason to not self host?

Plus, when you self-host, you can likely fix the issue yourself in a couple of hours max, instead of waiting indefinitely for a fix or support that might never come.

These global cloud outages aren’t the real issue; they affect everyone and get fixed.

What is killer is when there is a KNOWN issue that affects YOU but basically only you so why bother fixing it!
