Sketchy? That's called convenience. I don't think you're valuing your time correctly. And if you are running email, spam protection, ddos protection, nextcloud, jitsi, element, matrix, listmonk, vaultwarden, baserow, wireguard configured like tailscale, caddy integrated with gitea for static site publishing, gitea for code managment, castopod, wordpress, and a global CDN for performance, well, I take my hat off to you! Would you like a job? Best wishes!
indeed that is a lot of work and the convenience factor is quite something.
getting off google microsoft is also important.
my main beef really is the lack of transparency - seems off to tout how "open source" all the other projects are, that you're profiting from, without making your own product open source
but if you're contributing back, that's something
how does your product compare to https://cloudron.io which offers all these services on a self-hosted (sovereign) basis for 15 bucks a month? (which excludes server costs to be fair)

All of it minus WordPress and caddy yes. I haven't ran WordPress in over a decade. It's not that I don't like it, I just no longer blog. I also prefer nginx reverse proxies over caddy.

That's the power of these open-source tools. You get to make a choice. Federated Computer customers get to make a choice. Hats off to you. Best wishes!
