I use Wireguard to VPN into my LAN and use pihole to block ads and trackers. I use sync; but I do not plan on continuing my subscription when my renewal is up, I plan on self hosting a Nextcloud instance. I currently use 1Password for my password manager, but again when it is up for renewal I plan on having moved to a self hosted Bitwarden.

I use Jellyfin for media and have canceled all of my subscriptions, except CBC, and use the *arr apps line sonarr to sail the high C’s.

*Edit: I forgot I use hosthero to host my domain, blog, and email addresses. I have close to 200 email addresses because I use a different email address for everything. I just forward them to one of a few email addresses I check. If I start getting spammed I just close the email address, if it is a service I need or find value in I will let them know their has been a leak but more often than not I just close the address. I get next to no spam!

I know you're talking about self-hosting everything, but to OP's point at least 1Password is a Canadian company.

So is sync.com and hosthero
