I have the exact opposite feeling. I would not selfhost email but I would selfhost a password manager and my files behind WireGuard, like many have said.

I have almost moved from cloud hosting to home server. This perfectly reasonable for non critical services that don’t require more than 90% availability. The simplicity of such a setup nowadays is a breeze of fresh air. Debian stable, WireGuard, syncthing, ssh, git, ... all are low maintenance and works fine with Linux and iOS clients.

I'm curious, how does syncthing and ios work for you? What kind of apps/settings do you use on the clients?

There is no support for syncthing on iOS. I managed to get it halfway working on ish, but it’s just not there, so as of now, I use the shellfish ssh app, that allows to sync folders, through WireGuard also.

Note that I use syncthing for the casual read only "important documents", such as ID copies, tax documents, ebooks, etc. I don’t sync photos, movies and such. Most editable documents are in git repos.

I sometimes work on my iPad, and then I use a ssh client or the ish app (a shell, with vim, etc).

I have used this setup for years, and it’s just low friction, low maintenance for me. I have thought about using an own cloud/nextcloud setup, but it’s just too much work for little value. Like running gitlab instead of ssh and git.
