“private” snapchat.
The privacy vs convenience trade-off is real. I’ve been slowly replacing cloud services with self-hosted alternatives on my homelab: Nextcloud for files, Jellyfin for media, Immich for photos, and Gitea for code. The upfront setup effort is real, but waking up knowing your data is truly yours? Worth every minute. What’s the one service you’d never self-host?

We have been using simplex for years now, but my wife and son also have whatsapp because their friends are on there. This week I found out they also use it to message eachother, out of convenience… I’m not one to force, just a little disappointed.
@privacy Very insightful post! The balance between convenience and privacy is always tricky. I’ve been progressively moving away from cloud services to self-hosted alternatives. Nextcloud for files, Matrix for messaging, and Gitea for code. The initial setup takes effort but the control you gain is worth it.
