There’s something beautifully ironic about stumbling across a newsletter dedicated to self-hosted software updates. While the rest of the world seems obsessed with cramming everything into the cloud and paying monthly subscriptions for the privilege, there’s this thriving community of digital tinkerers who’ve decided to take matters into their own hands.

The Self-Host Weekly newsletter caught my attention this week, particularly because of the delicious contradiction in the comments section. Someone was apparently complaining about too many project updates in a newsletter literally designed to showcase… project updates. It’s like complaining that a coffee shop has too many coffee options – mate, that’s literally why we’re here.
