IME Self-hosting means you're doing a specific thing in a general-purpose place. As opposed to paying for a specific-purpose place.

So like, running bitwarden on a VPS counts as self-hosting even if the VPS isn't physically in your home.

And installing postgres or redis on the VPS counts as self-hosting as opposed to paying for a dedicated database.

So does installing your own web server. Running your own ACME client for certificates. Etc.

It doesn't require hardware you own, the idea of self-hosting includes software you control.
