How do you like the self hosted approach? I contemplate it every so often, but I’m not sure that my sysadmin abilities (and attention) are enough to keep it secure.

    The admin overhead isn't too bad as long as you have a good base, and don't try to do anything crazy. I transferred from Synology to a custom built NAS recently, and it's running TrueNAS. That supports not only docker now, but also a catalog of apps preconfigured for TrueNAS with minimal manual setup needed.

    For Vaultwarden, since it needs external access, I had issues setting up various reverse proxy systems and dynamic DNS services properly. So I got cheap like $5 domain through Cloudflare, and run a Cloudflare tunnel back to my network for Vaultwarden and a couple other apps like Emby for my media.

    The Cloudflare tunnel also allows me to use WARP as a VPN on my laptop and phone to route that traffic back through my home network. Which also lets me use the pi-hole on my network for my ad blocking on those devices.

    I jump into the TrueNAS interface weekly to check for system and app updates, and that's about it.
