I think any self-hosting is technical. Especially technical is the security aspect, and especially time consuming is all of the updates over time. I actually have a VPS at linode. Lot of stuff to set that up and keep up to date. Not talking Lemmy. Way more efficient for me just to pay $7 x 12 to these guys to take care of all of that. Just say $7 because that is the monthly cost to run my VPS. Well that plus my domain which is not free either.

Anyway, just some thoughts based on my non-Lemmy experience.
