@cubicgarden<\/a> Interesting bit on Techgrumps regarding \"self-hosting\". While you were talking about your own hardware, @wendyg<\/a> was talking about self-hosting her own stuff with a provider. Both equally valid, of course.<\/p>

My blog is \"self-hosted\" but also it isn't: it is self-hosted because I'm not using Medium or Blogger or whoever; but it's not self-hosted because it's using flat-file Amazon S3 with a CDN in front of it. My Bitcoin node is actually self-hosted (using Umbrel on a Pi in my house), which offers much the same apps as @yunohost<\/a> which you mentioned.<\/p>

I don't know what the words are for \"self-hosted but not on my metal\" vs \"self-hosted on my own hardware\"; I'm nervous about self-hosting on my own metal for things that require constant security updates; and I think there are interesting reasons to do both.<\/p>

(I'd also question your assertion that \"it is getting more popular now\". Citation needed!)<\/p>","generator":{"id":"tag:gnusocial.jp,2026-06-21:notice-source:ActivityPub","objectType":"application","status_net":{"source_code":"ActivityPub"}},"id":"https:\/\/bne.social\/users\/james\/statuses\/114634971561133443","object":{"id":"https:\/\/bne.social\/users\/james\/statuses\/114634971561133443","objectType":"note","content":"
