      All the traffic is now attributed to you, like it was before your self hosted VPN.

        That’s a fact. But, in the first place, VPNs weren’t invented for privacy.

          It also depens on what informations the host has about you. Bare minimum is the IP, but it isn’t really an identification

            If you’re hosting a VPN in your house, all traffic is going to/from your device and your home encrypted, and your home and the isp unencrypted. Since it’s in your home, everything you do on the VPN tunnel can be seen on the other side by your isp.
