Yep, sharing stuff for others requires more expertise, as I’ll get responsible for other people’s experience. If I screw something up now, only I will be affected.
Comment on ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP?
SufferingSteve@feddit.nu 2 days agoDude above you over is under the perception that it requires 100% uptime or other users to to be classified, which is wrong. You are definitely self hosting, albeit only for yourself I assume. Which is fine

And you are self-sufficient, or whatever the word is. But that’s the key thing for me, not having to rely on others for my services :)

Yep!
For me it’s a sense of reliability and control - my stack will keep working even if new censorship rolls out (I live in a heavily censored and sanctioned jurisdiction), or if there’s a global outage, or whatever else. I am also the sole authority over my piece of the Internet, and no one can do anything to alter it or take it away.

yes. i ment the uptime. to me hosted means i can reach it in a digital way any time even if it is just wake on lan. but if you guys say some device running 8hrs a day is hosting I am fine with that.
