(#smqbu3q) @movq I think renting a server, especially a VPS, is still considered self-hosting if you're controlling it. It might not be the absolute control and self-hosting of a home server, but it's the next best thing.

@eldersnake (#smqbu3q) There was a project in Germany a while ago (10-15 years?) that tried to push self-hosting. It was a little device that you could plug into some wall socket, it would connect via WiFi, and provide lots of services, like file sharing or a social network, I think? It never took off. It was ridiculed (by us nerds), because it didn’t work well enough. So it died. I don’t even remember its name.

@eldersnake (#smqbu3q) Haha, my view of the world is so twisted, that I already consider “renting a server somewhere” as “self-hosting”. (Maybe because it’s impossible to do real self-hosting for some services, like e-mail where you’re immediately classified as “spam” if you don’t have a “static” IP. 🙄)
