Unless you are committed to it, it isn't worth it, I personally run my own but I have ran it for awhile and my IP seems to have good reputation but it is fairly difficult to get delivery to all major providers on a lot of IP addresses.

You're probably better off using email hosting unless you are committed to deal with the headache.

I use Dacentec, their colo prices are really reasonable and start @ $40/month, it is well worth it when you have your own hardware and you can load whatever you want in it. I've had no issues with uptime or stability either.

gitlab, several docker containers, kbin, ircds, a bouncer, 3-4 web servers, a couple seperate mysql servers, Handshake DNS hosting and Handshake nodes

Proxmox is all I use for VM hosting, it is well worth it IMO, I colo metal and I host several virtual machines on it, webservers, ircds, kbin, etc. I specifically use Virtual Machines (KVM) however, it does have the ability to do containerization too (LXC).

Would need more details such as error logs from the server and what you mean by "proxies", are you referring to cloudflare's caching proxy? Also, it is against RFC to CNAME a APEX domain, I am not sure of your exact details but by the way you are explaining things, it seems that you may have done this.
