> Ghost self-hosted is an example of this I don't know how configurable Ghost is but I suspect you will still have some problems if they introduce features that you don't like. You may be able to lag for a few versions but eventually there will be security vulnerabilities discovered, ecosystem features like plugins will grow incompatible and other general bitrot. Self-hosting will definitely give you a thick insulating layer, but upstream direction will eventually work its way through.
