I’m asking cause my previous post regarding my server that isn’t at home got moderated for violating rule 3. I don’t get it 🤔

    This idea of it not being** self** hosted because it’s on somebody else’s computer is just weird.

      I am running the software. I set it up. I maintain it. I can change it to whatever I want. It is therefore self-hosted.

          I mean I get what you’re saying. And certain things I really do want in my house. But at this point I feel like we disagree on a definition which is just kind of silly. As someone else said that used the distinction of home-hosted and self-hosted. I like being in control of my stuff and I think we both agree on that.

            Hey, I’m glad you said that! You’re right, we are just arguing semantics. We both agree that this hobby/job is something important
