This has nothing to do with selfhosting, this is a 100% security/hacker related question.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years about self-hosting it’s that I’ll happily pay to not have to deal with email hosting.
The only “self-hosting” I do for email is to download my own local archive for storage.
For the apps you are listing I would suggest simply spending an afternoon learning docker.
People go out of their way to de-Google their phones but them are ok with this situation.
I don’t think this venn-diagram is a circle.
I might come back at a later stage but I can’t deal with this level of intellect that I have encountered tonight.
No you’re right, we’re all very dumb and you should probably stay away.
Plex has gotten worse and worse over the years. The second Jellyfin supports Tizen I will probably switch (Samsung TV OS)
I’ve been a Flex Pass lifetime user since 2018 and I honestly feel like I got my money’s worth during that time so I can’t complain too much, but I’m absolutely ready to switch. They only focus on money-grab features these days, and playback & subtitle issues are getting worse every update.
I never bothered _too_ much about the privacy stuff, but after they got so “me me me” focused I trust them less with my data.
I’m just waiting for the Jellyfin Tizen-version to be approved (Samsung OS “app store”) and once that’s done I’m immediately switching.
I have Jellyfin on Chromecast, but unfortunately my TV doesn’t supports Dolby Atmos passthrough, so only native apps support it (+ Chromecast is just a bit sluggish)
Almost off topic: You can self host Spore?
What’s the purpose here, will you host it and access it from a browser? Or do you only want to backup its data to your server?
I have been online for a long time and seen countless services come and go, often my data goes with them.
So that was my reason for a long time, having my data available and not relying on some third party.
Now, with the emergence of Big Data + AI I’ve also become a lot more privacy aware. Before I couldn’t even imagine why anyone would want to target my data (data mining takes a lot of work to be useful), but now/soon they can just point AI at data dumps and ask it something like “give me a list of X people to exploit, order it by method, chance of success etc etc”
Paranoia? Yes, but suddenly it feels reasonable to be paranoid.
