Self-hosting allows you to block trackers at the DNS level. =) Depending on your level of hands-on you can block rentable infrastructure that trackers use and whitelist the apps which coincidentally also rent compute in that space. You can also use resolution telemetry to synthesize PTR records so that reverse DNS works for assets in the the cloud. In order to accomplish those things I rely on Response Policy Zones and Dnstap, features which I don't see listed for this server. Nonetheless it does have filtering capability and decent coverage of features important to the average internet user, based on their listed features. [I give away the RPZ / Dnstap stuff on GitHub, and I use BIND.]
