  Yeah, I have dabbled in that with streaming to multiple platforms via a VPS. It definitely is stretching the definition of self hosting.

    I’ve been using a VPS for a while now. I still maintain it, so it’s very much like self hosting.

      Yeah, it’s the same in terms of software maintence, but you aren’t doing the entirety of hosting yourself, as someone else is actually physically hosting your server. You don’t have to add HDDs when you run out of space, if that company goes down your servers go down, etc. It’s like semi-self hosting? I’m not sure what a good term for it would be.

        Yeah, I only put specific things their. Management and monitoring things. The services are still local.
