4 months agoTo me, it is not. If the internet or anything else goes down you lose all access. You are not hosting your services, so claiming to be SELF-hosting is not really accurate.
Furthermore, in the phylosophical aspect, you depend on a private company for all your infrastructure and are not doing anything against the centralization of the internet. To me, this is one of the core reasons I self-host. Maybe we need to make new terms for this, but allowing anything under the corporate cloud umbrella to be called SELF-hosting seems bad to me.
Went from TrueNAS to OpenMediaVault and we are quite happy atm. Very reliable, decent documentation, easy to use. We were between this and Proxmox when we switched but ultimately chose OMV for its ease. It’s been at least a year and with ~100 containers running and some friends asking for VMs it would have been useful to be in proxmox, but not a biggie. However, be sure of your usecase and try imagining future needs just to be prepared and avoid more migrations ;)
