Sure? If you help fund it, definitely. You’re not self hosting, but you’re still involved with those who do.

Self hosting movement is hosting stuff yourself, so kinda, assuming you’re not putting some kind of advertising on your own services, but most commonly I’d see things like jellyfin, nextcloud, navidrome, immich and then a bunch of other stuff, there’s foss alternatives to most commercial offerings.
Awesome selfhosted
Is a great place to start.

I should probably have put quotes around “selfhosting movement”, because I meant the term itself. Reason for asking is that if it doesn’t include shared instances, then it’s not a very big movement and most people will not really be able to join it.
That said I’m not trying to start a discussion on whether it’s good or bad, IMO it’s good and I self-host a lot of things for personal use myself. Just a thought I guess.
