Understandable. Sadly, you can’t exactly set up an off-site backup in your living room, no matter how much you want to.

When someone doesn’t want self hosted NAS, it feels like they often just dn’t want to bother with it. While I haven’t used them myself, I’ve heard good things about ready made NAS boxes.

For self built, it has been too hassle free in my experience. I want to tinker more with the NAS part, but it is just too reliable & maintenance free!

While I know that they’re different, the more common reasons for not wanting a NAS just remind me a bit of some “reasons” to not care about digital privacy or security.

Well, for me, a password manager is too important to entrust to a for-profit company.

Out of curiosity, why not self hosted NAS?

I’ve been pretty happy with mine.

Peertube is probably the closest. I don’t really use either, but I’ve understood that peertube is a bit lacking in content.

As you’re here on lemmy.ml, I doubt it, but if you happen to be a “cryptocurrency enthusiast”, then odysee might also be an option, though I’m not sure hiw much of it is open-source.
