I second Obsidianmd.
Even before adding community plugins, the search, organization, and the ability to easily link to other documents/screenshots make documentation so easy for me

My lil neato bot from 2017/2018ish makes a perimeter map around my place each time it deploys, then makes back and forth sweeps. It’s got a built in weekly timer by the quarter hour to schedule sweeps. It beeps at me when its bin is full. Why do robot vacuums need the internet?
Think of self-hosting as - instead of depending on cloud services from other entities (google/apple/whoever), you host those services yourself by running them on your own pc or maybe your secondary pc running 24/7 (usually locally, in your own home).
Some common services might be automatic photo backup and storage (like immich), or running an adblocker for your home network, or streaming movie/music from your hard drive to your phone/TV (like jellyfin).


Not sure if you were angling for this response or used a voice transcription service, but it’s *seizing, not ceasing, btw
Unrelated: sometimes I’ve had confusing chats over fb marketplace trying to gauge the other person’s tone/sanity, but found their texts were just off because they let voice-transcription take the wheel.


It was the Muse album Drones that I bought from the band’s website. I thiiiink I shared a link to the folder to my netbook with a different account to download to, and then I didn’t notice til later (maybe it was a week? A month?) the folder of just this muse album was empty.
Idr checking the trash can for my Google drive or anything. I don’t think I got a notice because I searched “copyright” in my emails circa 2015, and nothing related to removing my files popped up.


I downloaded music I bought online and copied it to my Google drive once. This was years back, mid 2010s, this album just came out for my favorite artist back then. I’d downloaded it back to another pc and a week later - poof. No more mp3s. @.@
Edit: just that folder of that album’s mp3s, not my whole music library back then, just to be clear. Still, that was my first big burn from cloud services.
I run synology, so I usually refer to this guy’s website first to compare projects https://mariushosting.com/docker/
Although, some guides he posts require an environment variables file, of which he requires a donation for before downloading. I just scour the internet for the original projects’ compose at that point.
Sometimes future me has the memory of a goldfish, and I fear that, for future me, the online sources that guided me before won’t be there for me anymore
