Hosting a small dead simple hidden service website VPS vs from Home : OpSec | Torhoo darknet markets

Given a dead simple DN website HTML(only get and header are allowed with CSS and no JS) displaying the contact info, wallet address, products & pricing and the intrucrions how to order...
Would you rent a VPS and host it on it, or would you run the VM at home? The Linux OS amd the web server engine is hardened well, only Tor allowed in/out and the whole Tor connection is tunneled through a multi-hop DAITA enabled VPN.

I am sure that the VPN paid by XMR and only accessed via SSH via Tor + DAITA & Multi-hop VPN is the safest option, but it might be overkill. Way too overkill.

Same question applies when accessing the market.
I could have a Whonix-like setup where Pfsense is acting as a Tor proxy via DAITA multi-hop VPN and a hardened Ubuntu desktop is used to access the DNM(it would be Tor(browser) over Tor(Pfsense) orver VPN(beidged from the Host VM)) as a vendor vs VPS accessed on the same way as described above.

The idea of hosting anything dark web related at "home" is off the charts bad. Like.... why would you ever think that would be a good idea?
In some cases we can't believe vps hosters or maybe he didn't find one
until ppl like beelzebub exist ppl are not safe

The pro of hosting it from home I have full cotrol over it and can destroy in a few seconds. Otherwise, I need to trust the VPS hoster. I believe that I am a small fish.

That not a good idea. Why not at least put a little distance between you and server and get a VPS?
