I'm self hosting on an old laptop, and I'm a convert for life. Self-hosting is amazing. Looking for other people's weirdest examples of what they're doing as inspiration.

My example, I recently set up a grammar script, where I have a couple 8b LLMs and an html landing page. I upload a doc and it corrects grammar and highlights changes it made, or just proofreads and I make changes manually. I can upload a novel before bed, and have suggestions based on specific writing styles in the morning. All local, perfectly suited for my own work.

yeah, i understand you. i don't want to use my phone for every single thing either. in particular I'm not using it when I'm home. but in this case it's really nice for me personally, because stuff that i marked disappears from the top and often my wife and i go together, so having a synced up list is neat
