I'm also running my BBS at home, next to an Emby Media Server.
I'm running a mail server for several domains (for my wife, her mum  
and me) and don't have massive problems with mails (only sometimes  
with Micro$oft users)
Besides, I'm hosting a Jitsi and Matrix instance and my own RSS  
reader.

And for me, the main reason is also that I'd like to have control over  
my infrastructure -- and it's working for ~10 years now without any  
bigger problems.

Regards,
Anna
