I've been running my own mail server for the past 20 years.
I pay almost no attention to it or the spam filter.
If I do have a rare problem, I don't have to wait around for <your favorite cloud mail> to acknowledge/fix the problem.

Yeah, I am moving to Google Suite, $5 an account. Yeah, Yeah, I know
everyone hates Google, but my last job they were our mail server and I was
one of the admins. It easy to use.

Plus, no more late night fight with postfix.
