I saw this post today on Reddit and was curious to see if views are similar here as they are there.

  1. What are the best benefits of self-hosting?
  2. What do you wish you would have known as a beginner starting out?
  3. What resources do you know of to help a non-computer-scientist/engineer get started in self-hosting?

    Yeah… Becoming a public-facing file host for others to use seem rather irresponsible.

    If/when a user’s given a means of uploading files to my server, there’s no method/permissions for them to share those files with others; it’s really just for them to send files to me. (Filebrowser is pretty good for that)

    That and almost nothing is public access; auth or gtfo.
