I use a cloud VPS at a state-owned datacenter in Vietnam (the army indirectly runs it). All things considered, they've been actually quite good, I've been a customer for several years now. Ping from my home or workplace is very low (under 10 ms). I get 4x vCPU / 2GB RAM, and 40GB storage (most of my self-hosted stuff is pretty lightweight).
Most of my self-hosted stuff is just plain packages, but I wanted to learn to use Docker and Ansible for Lemmy. Other services I sometimes run are an MQTT broker, and a few databases for logging data.
Logs go to /var/logs (there aren't many). I update software manually and often-ish. I've tested, but do not regularly use orchestration tools.
I've considered hosting at home, because a symmetrical fiber connection is ridiculously cheap here. The only reason I don't is because I need to have a VPS for client work anyway, so I may as well just use that and save the $$$ paying for a static IP at home.
