I put every site behind the same free CDN tier and forgot about DDoS worries.

Moving from shared hosting to a VPS was the best decision for my sites.

My monitoring setup alerts me within a minute of downtime and costs nothing.

I did a bit of searching but could not find a recent thread on this, so here we go.

Same registrar here, never had a problem in six years.

certbot with the nginx plugin has been flawless for me.

A simple rsync cron is my entire backup strategy and I sleep fine.

Free CDN tier is more than enough for a forum.

I disagree slightly, but I can see where you are coming from.

That has been my experience as well.
