We also have to take into account that the barrier for entry is rapidly decreasing when it comes to self-hosting.

Fifteen years ago building your own computer and installing Linux on it presented some serious challenges, but today the process has been made so easy that even I can do it! It is almost plug-and-play.

I think that as more people buy into the idea of decentralized networks with nodes hosted by the members of the community, the greater demand for plug-and-play self-hosting will motivate entrepreneurs to offer more products with simpler designs, as well as to provide tailored cloud hosting services.
