64 days of continuous uptime today!! I know this isn’t much compared to serious hosting, but I started self-hosting not so long ago and it’s my record so far.

Apart from that, hosting my own messenger (Matrix) instance and actually having my friends switch to it from proprietary platforms. The sense of truely owning my data is deeply satisfying.

I don’t know how but a windows 7 machine I’ve recently had to use still got an update before shutting down…

It’s a very big feature to implement but if you happen to have enough time and energy, making a self-hostable server part that would sync contact lists between devices would be pretty useful.

Actually an even simpler approach would be to add an option to have the DB file in a regular directory on internal or external storage (not in the special Android app data folder) and then Syncthing would do the rest.
