The Future is NOT Self-Hosted

My wife and I now have a computer in our house that runs open-source equivalents to Google Drive, Google Photos, Audible, Kindle, and Netflix. It syncs to all of our devices. It's secured behind our own VPN. And it's wholly, truly owned by us. And this week, I want to share with you how I did it, what I learned, and why I think self-hosting is NOT the future we should be fighting for.
