sad but hosting static content like his site in a cloud would save him a headache. i know i know, "do it yourself" and all but if that is his path he knows the price. maybe i am wrong and do not understand the problem but it seems like he is asking for a headache.

edit: words

I think the author would agree, and is in fact the point of his post.

The only way to solve these problems is using some large hosted platform where they have the resources to constantly be managing these issues. This would solve their problem.

But isn't it sad that we can't host our own websites anymore, like many of us used to? It was never easy, but it's nearly impossible now and this is only one reason.

i think it has been a hard to host a site since about 2007. i stopped then because it is too much work to keep it safe. even worse now but it has always been extra work since search engines. maybe the OP is just getting older and wants to spend time with his kids and not play with nginx haha.
