why not host your own
I’ll first have to research how, but at no point will I consider myself as reliable as some professional provider like Cloudflare.
On the other hand, Cloudflare is kind of becoming the internet with all the centralization. Imagine if Cloudflare and AWS completely went offline at the same time. The internet would be fairly quiet.

That’s fair. Though you should consider that it’s really easy to set up secondary nameservers as a mirror (ns-global, for example, offers such a service). So your own reliability matters less in the end. On the other hand, Cloudflare is kind of becoming the internet with all the centralization. Yup. That’s the main reason I avoid using them.
