I've self hosted at least one domain for decades.
Initially self hosted email, webserver, and whatever else I wanted. But now I've started paying for some of the hosting.
If you want a really reliable service and aren't an sysadmin already, pay someone.
If you want to learn and do it yourself, go for it.
I still mostly host myself on a VPS node (Web, Blog, ssh git access, and DNS master), but pay to have email hosted. Server is a VPS at Linode I've had for probably nearly two decades. Email is hosted on Google Workspace so it includes calendar, address book, storage, groups, Google Docs, etc.
