No one is going to spend the resources to DDOS you. Also those attacks are temporary, they are a plague when having a website unreachable means money loss. For instance anyone can DDOS my blog I wouldn’t care, even for a whole week (I have IP bans mechanism btw).
Also do you think your IP is secret right now? Do you run JavaScript? Does any device in your home run any JavaScript? Does anyone uses anything like discord, zoom, Skype, google hangout, jitsi?
I don’t mean the main concern of privacy is not relevant, just the DDOS specifically shouldn’t concern hosts unless they are making daily profit from their website traffic.
What if you live in the United states plus how could one selfhost who is not tech savvy
start from the bottom and get tech savvy! nowhere to go but up. unless you need immediate results?
what about when it comes to DDOS attacks, I’d rather my home network not get congested

are you able to link me to video guides on how this can be done then securely
Banning IPS is not really going to help against ddos, you will still be flooded with incoming traffic
