What products do you wish you could self-host? (alien.top)

This hasn't been asked in a while, and I really loved reading the last discussion so I'm hoping to kick it off again and see what has changed!

What I'd like to know is:

- What specific products do you wish you could host on your own infrastructure, but the product does not offer such a deployment method

- Do you or would you use the product without being able to self-host? I.E. In its current state

- Do you think your employer, if any, holds the same opinions?

I hear you can do something pretty close to workflowy with obsidian.md, which you can pretty much self host with the help of syncthing

It's almost as good to have obsidian with a sync option on multiple devices, but still an obsidian self hosted webapp would be fantastic! I know there is a docker image that offers something like that, but it's a webversion of vnc and a small Linux container, instead of a proper web app.

Again: going with local apps and a sync option (I too use syncthing) is very user friendly too, but I still miss the option to kust browse to my vault from any computer. Log in, do some work and see the changes reflected in my local vaults:)
