I use Aurora, while the development has been "paused indefinitely" there are still plenty of features that make this app well worth it. There is a pretty exhaustive list of additional content that you can add to the application, making it super easy to build any kind of character you want. I've tried a few of the Android apps out there like 5E Character Sheet and while those might work well for you, I really appreciate the easy item management that Aurora provides.

You control the hardware you are provisioned and the software you run on it, which is enough for me. Unless you're looking for a job in the server adminstration/maintenance field the physical hardware access component of it matters less IMO
Selfhosting is the act of hosting applications on "hardware you control". That could be rented or owned, its the same to us. You could go out and buy a server to host your applications but there a few issues that you might run into that could prevent you from simply standing up a server rack in your spare room. From shitty ISPs to lack of hardware knowledge there are plenty of reasons to just rent a VPS. Either way youre one of us :)
Maybe if they did pay us to verify on a 3DS Nintendo wouldn't have discontinued it :(
This is awesome, thanks!
