I run my "server" [1] straight to my home internet, and maybe I should count my blessings but I haven't had any issues with DDoS in the years I've done this.

I have relatively fast internet, so maybe it's fast enough to absorb a lot of the problems, but I've had good enough luck with some basic Nginx settings and fail2ban.
