I too self host my instance. I opted to use Pleroma (https://pleroma.social/ https://pleroma.social/) for a backend to interact with the fediverse because of the easier setup and lower hosting requirements.
It’s been working for a few years now and (luckily) I never had major incidents.
It’s very refreshing to be in full control of one’s data (compared to the centralised experience with other socials like Twitter and Facebook).
