Research
Analysis computed from our structured index of 105 tools: licence drift, the single sign-on gap, what memory a realistic stack actually needs, and which things cannot be backed up with a file copy.
Default port collisions
Twenty-one tools ship with port 80 as a default. Almost none of those collisions are a real problem, and four of them are.
Original dataLicence drift: the quiet relicensing of self-hosted software
Which self-hosted projects relicensed, what each change actually forbids, and the one question to ask before you adopt a source-available tool.
Original dataThe state of self-hosting in 2026
Median idle memory, operational load, licence class and backup shape across the whole index, with the tradeoff named.
DataThe backup blind spot
A nightly restic run over a data directory produces restorable-looking Postgres and SQLite that is not restorable.
IdentityThe single sign-on gap
50 percent native OIDC, 57 percent counting plugins, 31 percent with nothing to federate. The last group decides your design.
