I host my site on Apache running on an ARM board in my garage.
I'll consider moving to a VM if/when the ARM board eventually fails, but it's been running for 6 years so far. I have 6TB of storage, which mostly serves as a NAS but includes about 200GB of photos for the website.
There is no deployment process; the web root is mounted by NFS on my desktop. I can share large files with people just with "mv" or "ln -s".
> how many 9s do my personal websites actually need?
My router seems to crash every 3-4 months, and I need to reset it. There's around 15-30 minutes of power failure every year. I don't worry about this.
