    Self Hosting. I love optimizing my securing my life while improving my family’s privacy. Nextcloud to store and backup media, contacts, and knowledge base. Hosting a free remote VPN on OCI, remote encrypted backups to a fellow enthusiast’s server…I love that while my data is local, if my house was to burn down, the years of pictures and precious memories will still be available. I also like being able to use this tech to help people close to me, doing backups for them, sharing ISO’s, etc.

        I host it on my own server at home :) Low latency and secure. Partially because I don’t trust myself to keep things secure, so the less I can have things publicly accessible, the better I feel
