Self-Hosting

Often when a company does something silly (being quite generous with this term), there are almost instantanious comments about some kind of self-hosted alternative. While I enjoy self-hosting (and building tools for me to self-host), the server is the easy part (again, being generous with the term). A huge source of friction for many of the self-hosted options, are the integrations that make it feel complete and often the part that needs the most continual investment.
