I’m thinking about deploying my own instance where I’d be the only user and most probable I won’t have any communities.
The only thing there will be my account to interact with as many other instances as I want.

What would be de pros and cons of having my account like this?
Would it be harder to interact with other instances in some way?

    Content longevity: You can do your own backups and don’t have to worry about loosing content when another instance disappears.

    Conversely, this is the main thing keeping me from setting up my own instance. You have to do your own backups and keep everything running. If you mess up, you loose your whole identity. I’m a software engineer, but I’m a mediocre sys admin. I have the technical skills to host my own instance but I don’t want the stress of getting it right.
