This is purely for my own personal curiosity, but what’s the main reason you self-host? I say main because I don’t know how to allow multiple answers, if that’s possible at all. For me it’s the last option; because it’s cool. If it’s none of these reasons, absolutely make additional options in the comments.
@ mods, if this in any way breaks any of the rules or just generally detracts from the sub at all, I’ll gladly remove it. Also I didn’t flair it because none of the flairs seem to fit.
Voted privacy - but more importantly (and not listed) “My services wont disappear with little or no notice”
Funny, that’s usually my biggest reason not to self host something. If my
serverpi dies, I don’t want to lose anything important.Of course, I have backups, but restoration is a hassle.
That’s how I used to be; but after a number of things that I enjoyed using got shut down I’ve just become so annoyed at the idea that I self-host out of spite. 😅
