Very much a personality and/or lifestyle thing, but I've also been building infra for decades. I mean it was two container startups and a phone app download (10min). Not exactly difficult. If I didn't like it I certainly wouldn't be in tech!
> pay someone
I'd do that with something like 3 story roof work or foundation work with a contractor, but tech? If I want the outcome I will be happy with, often have to do it myself.
- phoghed 2mo agoTo be clear I don’t mean pay someone to set it up for me, but rather pay for a saas platform that’s already doing it. It’s not that I couldn’t run something locally, I just don’t want to deal with the hassle. I was into home automation and self hosting media and some other stuff for a while. It’s the kind of thing I’d only do again if i was equally or more interested in the process than the outcome.

I am also looking to actively cut my SaaS / services cost to $0 or near $0. I don't want another company touching my fucking data or prompts.
