Self hosting. I’m still a beginner on this but Nextcloud and plex made me way richer than before both economically and mentally
You selling subscriptions to make up the difference? My server only cost me money so far lol
Nope only my family, friends and I are using it. But thanks to plex and all the arr apps I canceled all my streaming and cloud subscriptions. Server is an old dell business pc so it’s not that much power hungry.
Self hosting is awesome. I self host an email server, website, file transfer server, xmpp chat server, Nextcloud (for calendar and contact sync and video conferencing), and a search engine on a single VPS which costs me £4 per month. No previous background in web admin at all!
Self hosting made me poorer short term but the skills may help in the future I hope
