I don't know, where do you draw the line? If I host it myself using nginx running on a VPS, does that count? Or still no, because I don't own the VPS?

What if it's a dedicated machine, colocated? What if it's at home, but I pay an ISP?

edit: Downvoted, care to explain why? I genuinely wrestle with this question. I self-host lots of services at home - and I also self-host services on a cloud VPS, which have better availability and security posture with regards to my home network for things I make public or semi-public. Some have told me this isn't "self-hosting" and I am not sure where the line is drawn.
