As in, running software to update your DNS records automatically based on your current system IP. Great for dynamic IPs, or just moving location.

Sure, cloudflare provides other security benefits; but that’s not what OP was talking about. They just wanted/liked the plug+play aspect, which doesn’t need cloudflare.
Those ‘benefits’ are also really not necessary for the vast majority of self hosters. What are you hosting, from your home, that garners that kind of attention?
The only things I host from home are private services for myself or a very limited group; which, as far as ‘attacks’ goes, just gets the occasional script kiddy looking for exposed endpoints. Nothing that needs mitigation.
Unless you are behind CGNAT; you would have had the same plug+play experience by using your own router instead of the ISP supplied one, and using DDNS.
At least, I did.
Because library patrons are the ones setting military policy ofc… Glad the message is reaching the right people.

English is the language that beats up other languages in dark alleys then rifles through their pockets for loose phrases and spare grammar.
I have one more thought for you:
If downtime is your concern, you could always use a mixed approach. Run a daily backup system like I described, somewhat haphazard with everything still running. Then once a month at 4am or whatever, perform a more comprehensive backup, looping through each docker project and shutting them down before running the backup and bringing it all online again.
I setup borg around 4 months ago using option 1. I’ve messed around with it a bit, restoring a few backups, and haven’t run into any issues with corrupt/broken databases.
I just used the example script provided by borg, but modified it to include my docker data, and write info to a log file instead of the console.
Daily at midnight, a new backup of around 427gb of data is taken. At the moment that takes 2-15min to complete, depending on how much data has changed since yesterday; though the initial backup was closer to 45min. Then old backups are trimmed; Backups <24hr old are kept, along with 7 dailys, 3 weeklys, and 6 monthlys. Anything outside that scope gets deleted.
With the compression and de-duplication process borg does; the 15 backups I have so far (5.75tb of data) currently take up 255.74gb of space. 10/10 would recommend on that aspect alone.
/edit, one note: I’m not backing up Docker volumes directly, though you could just fine. Anything I want backed up lives in a regular folder that’s then bind mounted to a docker container. (including things like paperless-ngxs databases)

Almost 200 pretty much exclusively from lemmynsfw before you could block a whole instance.
Once they added that, I’ve blocked very very few communities.
Dirty secrets about you.
Docker: right where you chose to put it.
hairlessness is pretty rare in the animal kingdom
As justification to why hairlessness is bad; This line’s kinda funny comming from a hairless ape who’s species dominates the planet…
I think what OC was getting at was how some animal breeds are bred with very limited groups to maintain desired bloodlines/genes. This leads to health issues due to inbreeding.
Pug dogs are a somewhat common example; same with a lot of ‘pure bred’ dog breeds.
I’m not sure how much that applies to sphinx cats.
With a quick search, this comes up:

It can be done ethically, with a sufficient gene pool. It can also be done cruelly; especially when profit is involved. I can’t say I have much faith in it being done ethically… But I’m sure there are some alright groups out there.
Your scrotum looks displeased…
You can’t disable notifications entirely, but there are categories:
Can’t recall ever getting a notification from the Galaxy Store app, but I would have gone here immediately if I did. Definitely haven’t gotten any since whenever I set these.
IANAD
But: that feeling is from lack/loss of blood flow through your limb. Limbs kinda need blood to survive. (well, oxygen from your blood…)
Probably not gonna kill ya, but I doubt it’s good for you either.
Hmm. Well that sucks.
Personally; I refuse to connect a phone to a car via Bluetooth. Too many reports of cars harvesting every available bit of info it can access from the connection and storing/uploading it inaccessible/immovable to the owner.
Aux cable, fm transmitter, or deal with the radio.
Ah… Google devices…
I’m much less confused.
Drink less paranoia smoothie…
I’ve been self-hosting for almost a decade now; never bothered with any of the giants. Just a domain pointed at me, and an open port or two. Never had an issue.
Don’t expose anything you don’t share with others; monitor the things you do expose with tools like fail2ban. VPN into the LAN for access to everything else.
