I'm asking cause my previous post regarding my server that isn't at home got moderated for violating rule 3. I don't get it 🤔

I mean by definition it isn't self hosting as someone else is hosting the service for you.

    You're welcome to your own definition.

    Whether you're configuring a docker container running on a server in your basement or on a VPS the issues you encounter are going to be much the same. The definition of self-hosted isn't really relevant.

    If you want to exclude people running services on rented hardware that just seems dumb.
