I have been hosting my website on the hosting platform since the last 17+ years. It has been quite a journey and I learnt a lot of things about networking, hosting, website management, content creation, etc. It was ofcourse a Wordpress (WP) site. On the side, I had phpbb (forums), GedView, etc. The website helps me keep my thoughts in control and provides me a platform to voice my opinions, ideas, views, etc. on various topics. I can go back and read the posts/blogs to sketch and retrace information as needed. So the blog/posts help me organize and keep a record of my braindump. The blogs/posts are more or less static and do not change much. So having a heavy WP install and maintaing it is a resource intensive work. Regular updates, security patches, etc. are also a pain to maintain.
