Here's another fantastic article related to this. It's about someone who's had to give up on selfhosting.

It's actually far worse than the Igregious article makes it look.
I wish they'd gone into a bit more detail about the issues they had, where they hosted, how they tried to fix their ip reputation, which providers blocked them, etc.
I've experienced the same issues in the past, but didn't find any of the insurmountable.
Though admittedly mine is more 'small business' than 'self-hosted', so I can afford to buy a small IP block and run on dedicated hardware.
