Yes, self-hosting falls under "owning your own backend". The managed option carries the same risk of shutdown as with any other provider. I think you can stop spamming your website in this thread now that you've mentioned it a half dozen times though.
That is _your_ definition of self-hosting. Do you rely on an entity for your internet connection? At some point, you _will_ need to rely on someone else's infrastructure.
Yes.
Self hosting for me can come because of a few different reasons:
- I want to ensure my data is safe
- I want to ensure uptime or performance
- I want to ensure continuity if the SaaS company disappears
Pricing matters of course. I get really ticked off at the overprice of many SaaS.
