    I do host some stuff myself 😉 but there’s one thing to keep in mind.

    Don’t self host stuff that your family still needs after you’re gone. Unless they are self host nerds like you. I stopped self hosting our mail and docs for example.

    Would you agree?

      I’d agree but you can expand this quite widely then. You think they don’t need their pictures anymore, in case you host something like Immich/Photoprism? If you host movies, series, games, they may not need them anymore but it would still be noticeable that they are not accessible anymore.

      Not that I am saying you are wrong or what a good way of doing that would be. I don’t know myself.
