As dismal as cesspools like Medium are, I'm starting to understand why they're options to self hosting anything at all. Managed services are someone else's security problem.
- q1w2 5y agoAs someone who runs a small company that self hosts as well as maintains our own hardware, it's great when things are running smoothly (>95% of the time), but when there's a problem, it's a complete time sink. On one hand, it's much cheaper, it's fun, makes integration work much easier, and I've learned a lot with each deep dive... ...but on the other hand, it can be more stressful, causes more downtime, and it a distraction to the mission of the company.
