Are there any benefits of hosting your own XMPP server?

Hello everyone! Are there any benefits of hosting your own XMPP server, considering I always use end-to-end encryption in all of my chats?

You could determine which XEPs to support…? Also, the usual benefits of hosting your own services. But neither is really a strong selling point IMHO.

Is there any point in not supporting some of XEPs? Could you give me examples, please?
