It's possible. Easy even. Google and Microsoft both were easy to deal with for me, and I even have a domain with a newer TLD (bar). DKIM+SPF is all it seems to take. My host was also on Spamhaus' blacklist, but no one else's. I'm not sure it mattered, but they were nice enough to remove it and reply with a snippy email about how reluctant they were to do so. No surprise there, folks at Spamhaus would block their own mother. Self-hosting email is just not that hard. It does take a bit of work, but that's why it's called DIY.

“I have found it to be easy” is not the same as “it’s easy”. The former could boil down to “I’ve been lucky.” In short, I’m skeptical that, given the recurring cries of anguish I’ve seen here previously, your anecdata is universal.

It was easy for you because you were lucky. My server has SPF and DKIM and DMARC, à grade of 100% on mail-tester, and was on zero blacklist. I NEVER could send an email to a Microsoft email address and have it end up in the inbox. It was systematically flagged as spam. Microsoft's answer was to subscribe to some shitty, shady third party service to maybe, MAYBE change my reputation.
