Hi guys,

What services do you think have the best return of investment? Where is it truly worth it to selfhost?

Cheers

    If you share purpose, then it will be easier to answer it. Do you want a self-hosted service for yourself or for the product?

    The big one for me will always be Navidrome (and the various *sonic forks before) because I have access to my music collection, and don’t have to pay a subscription.

    Vaultwarden I’ll give another +1, especially after fighting keeping KeePass synced across devices. Plus I have control over it.

    I’m sure throwing my torrent client helps because it’s on a box that’s always on and my computer can be turned off if we’re talking cost of electricity. Or just general wear and tear on hardware.

    Apparently some people consider their own time absolutely worthless because they see time spent setting something up, learning things, not as a investment.

    I somehow doubt that OP was asking specifically about a financial investment.
