    I’ve been using a VPS for a while now. I still maintain it, so it’s very much like self hosting.

      Yeah, it’s almost exactly the same in terms of software maintence, but of course you don’t actually host anything. I like the idea that, if the WWW goes down, I’ll still be able to control my smart home (locally of course) and such. Using a VPS is like semi-self hosting. I can’t really think of a good term for it, so I can see why it’s still grouped into self hosting.

        Yeah, I only put specific things there. Management and monitoring things. The services are still local.
