Up front: I agree with your “no, thanks”, but, I do think there is a philosophical point the author has to not host software themselves, which 86’s most OSS. Not that I agree with their “rules”, but I can at least understand why they’d choose to not host. (Fair warning: I host other peoples software (Heroku architect) for a living so I’m probably very biased)

The older I get, the more I've slid towards the opinion that I'd much rather configure cloud SaaS via terraform than waste days of work maintaining a self-hosted application.
