God, this made me weep at work

I know of MFA being allowed on it when you go premium, and I think it allows a collection, so you can have a shared collection of passwords with someone else. It's been really handy for my wife and I, especially for things like bank and apartment logins.

I hear that! Admittedly, I've gotten grumpy at myself a few times for "not being able to make something practical," but I'm reminded when my wife thanks me occasionally for our home server setup (she loves Nextcloud), that it is practical and we use it all the time.

I've got my Wireguard I'm hosting on OCI (they give you 2 free VM instances), and looking to use the second instance to host SearXNG, then have Azure AD for free Active Directory, Home Assistant & Mycroft on Pi's, and otherwise, hosting local VM's via Proxmox on some older servers. I haven't gone too hard into clustering or orchestration yet, though I'm looking to replace most of those VM's with Docker instances at some point here, reduce compute reservations. Most of my power reduction has been through logical means, not yet through hardware, the costs involved keep me from leaping too hard quite yet. (Hard to drop big money on servers when rent is over half of my income) But I'll get there! I love seeing how much I can do with very little, so it at least scratches that part of the brain in the meantime :)

I host it on my own server at home :) Low latency and secure. Partially because I don't trust myself to keep things secure, so the less I can have things publicly accessible, the better I feel

Self Hosting. I love optimizing my securing my life while improving my family's privacy. Nextcloud to store and backup media, contacts, and knowledge base. Hosting a free remote VPN on OCI, remote encrypted backups to a fellow enthusiast's server...I love that while my data is local, if my house was to burn down, the years of pictures and precious memories will still be available. I also like being able to use this tech to help people close to me, doing backups for them, sharing ISO's, etc.

Phew! Good to know, thank you so much! I'll keep looking, then :)

Aaah, I'd been looking at Edmonton, hoping that the dense population would cause it to lean more progressively. The housing prices there are pretty mind-blowing, hadn't seen many places with that low of monthly cost. I'll dig East - any places you might recommend? I know Toronto's pretty spendy right now \

Also, thank you so much for your response, this is helping me immensely, it's a big move to make, and I want to make sure I'm as informed as I can be :)

That's honestly why I was looking at it, the prices kinda blew my mind over there, that I could afford nearly 3 apartments in Edmonton for the price of one in Oregon, and the apartments were generally much newer and fancier for that price range.

Oh wow, I had no idea, I was assuming it was mostly in Quebec for some reason and saw the low housing prices in Edmonton. Thanks a ton for the heads up!

I'm an Oregonian currently working on migrating to Alberta, I'd love to hear your thoughts on what pro's and con's I'd be running into. Seeing housing prices in Edmonton while my in-laws' mobile home is selling for over half a million really has me thinking...

I've been in the process of migrating to Alberta, but this definitely gives me pause. Just how bleak are things over there?

ngl, I've been blasting this every day of September so far - my partner and I like to sing along with it
