    Quite some people do, so it’s great such options exist.

    My own gripe is with self-hosted apps that don’t need a server to begin with.

    Why do I have to run a server to manage my bookmarks? Write down recipes? Control available stock? Manage finances?

    All that can be done via local-first apps that may then have some backup functionality (or have files in one place so I could sync them). Adding a server layer only adds complexity and forces me to keep it on or toggle every time, affecting performance and battery life.

      Its not really option to begin with,and idk why some people are delusional that their file would be more secure on a server that is poorly maintained.surely you can have basic sense of privacy in it but it would be delusional to say they are secure.carrying a memory card or basic pen drive is better than all of this bullshit,and have a large hdd storage at home for files u don’t need on daily basis.
