Like the title says, I’m new to self hosting world. 😀 while I was researching, I found out that many people dissuaded me to self host email server. Just too complicated and hard to manage. What other services that you think we should just go use the currently available providers in the market and why? 🙂thank you

    Passwords:
    -> You want to have immediat access to them, even if your house burns down

    Notes:
    -> You want to be able to read the documentation how to fix your selfhosted service, even when your selfhosted services are down

    Public Reverse proxy:
    -> A reverse proxy is only as safe as the applications behind. And NO, most selfhosted-applications are not hardened or had security audits
    (reverse proxy with a forward authentication proxy is something different)
