  • Thanks for this. I think this is also an example of a opensource software that is selfhostable, but is intended for a different audience. I think Zammad, Monicahq etc fall under this category. I suppose one would need a solution with an entirely different architecture that’s aimed for selfhosters, rather than hope that omnivore becomes easier to selfhost.






  • The risk that @regalpotoo mentioned is still unmitigated though, single user instance or not. At worst, the personal data can be exfiltrated. At best, the server can be used as a part of a botnet. Even if the software (nextcloud) would be patched, that doesn’t help against exploits on a OS level.

    Granted, one could run services inside a vpn and have some kind of preventive / monitoring controls, but you’re still need to implement some kind of defense in depth in order to protect it.
