Rug pulling and control and curiosity. If you host with a host, you’re only able to put in your feed what they allow you too. With self hosting, you can put any tag in your feed you want as long as you’re curious enough to figure it out. If your host goes tits up or decides to censor your feed or add dynamic ads to offset host costs, you’re at their mercy. And some people just like the idea of being in control of the means of distribution of their content. But that extra freedom and control comes with the extra responsibility of maintaining your own feeds.
