Hosting and keeping home intranet things up and running isn't too much of an issue.
Hosting and running a 3rd party instagram clone on my home intranet that is available to the outside world isn't something that I'd be comfortable doing.
On the other hand, the bluehost Wordpress instance keeps itself nicely updated. I'm ok with that. Likewise, the GitHub pages site is out there and I don't even have to slightly think about that one.
The difference between the home intranet and home hosted intranet available services is a significant distinction for me.
I wouldn't be comfortable running home hosted intranet available solutions for anything. Nor would I want my parents or siblings to be running such.
I shudder to consider how many home networks were compromised with Minecraft systems last month... and how many are still vulnerable.
While you and I may be practicing safe and reasonable network policies and staying up to date with vulnerabilities for services running on our systems - that level of technical understanding and responsibility isn't something that is commonly found in the general populace.
I would be hesitant to suggest that people should be hosting their own services on their own networks and without a managed solution.
