My homelab keeps dying :( should I move to cloud

These past two years, I've been a digital nomad, which means most of the times I'm not at home.

Initially I had a homelab that was basically a powerhouse, and I used to run Proxmox on it, now when I was home, if anything used to go down I could quickly fix this.

Over the years, I started using my homelab to do testing for customers etc, ofcourse no customer data is used here but replicating issues was pretty fast, AWS used to take a lot of time to create a cluster, and then I had to figure out IAM etc.

But then my homelab kept going down, and I hate it now, my boxes were pretty robust and for some reason they keep going down and I can't go fix it because sometimes a simple restart doesn't fix it.

So now I'm thinking if I should move back to the cloud :( which seems fun

So over the next few weeks, I'll see if I can do something like spinning up some clusters in either some cloud envs or something like that.
