The survey is kinda weird. Like why do one has to use a VPN/RP/LAN when you can also just have the Server public exposed ? And for some other questions I should’ve voted „depending “ as neither true or false applied.
The question about firewall is weird. There are one or two more options between ISP router and running your own.
Strange survey - it seems to imply that self-hosting means that I have the hardware running at home? Cannot fill this out, unfortunately.
Yeah seems like they mix up homelabbing and selfhosting a lot
Yea, that’s the whole deal with self hosting. Offside hosting or cloud hosting doesn’t mean you just have SAAS, you can have lower level access or even IAAS
Sorry but I’ve always called the VPS I run in the cloud, with software used by my 5 person DND group, “self hosted”. You’re saying it is, or it isn’t?
Self hosted usually refers to onside hosting. The VPS you are using is hosted offside. So basically it refers to where the server is, not who manages it. But there is a big overlap and many use them synonymous. It’s more of a „well actually“ that only happens to apply here
Filled out.
Making all questions mandatory means I abandoned the survey at some point. If you want people to respond, don’t make it feel like. a chore.
