        Possibly all common solutions out there including mail, chat, file sharing. We know there are alternatives but curious to see if anyone even willing to replace all with such things and run everything from lets say his home!

          @JaredBusch thats a good start, am thinking about common use cases not specifically in IT, lets say running these things for your close family/friends!

                  Now question is, if you have a very good hardware, blazing fast internet that you already use, would you be willing to set these up and willing to leave 3rd party services from Google, Micrsoft etc?

                    That's a cool little list. Didn't know that was out there.

                      No, because I have better things to do than maintain this.

                      But, then I also have (currently) fewer issues with government restrictions than some places in the world.

                        How many people here runs such things like dropbox alternative with NextCloud/OwnCloud reasons could be different (cost savings/dont want to save personal files out somewhere else etc)

                          Am sure that there will be some of us here testing at least few of these products in their home lab!

                            I use NextCloud... but only because I was curious and wanted to set it up. I've moved most of my file storage to Amazon Cloud Drive.

                              I've tried that too and same reason. Just curious. How is Amazon Cloud Drive now compared to Dropbox? (may be i need a seperate discussion topic for that!)

                                Pretty good, price is great and the performance is really good.

                                  I just add storage to my Google Drive. No hassle and no headaches. I think it is $3 a month for an additional 100GB.

                                    I use Amazon Cloud Drive for personal, but I didn't know that they offered a commercial service, too.

                                      Do they? I thought we were talking about personal here. A lot of these, at least in the US, you couldn't host more securely or for less money then the SaaS vendors do.

                                          Why do you want to go to self hosted? You're potential failure domain is huge compared to hosted solutions. Granted if you don't care about the uptime, etc, you can do it cheaper.

                                          If government issues are a concern... I'm not really sure that's a reason not to do it. Send your data to Europe, possible getting even more protection that you have in your home country.

                                          You mentioned hosted. The assumption is that you're going to put this online, do you either a) think they are corrupt and will give away your data, or b) that you can provide better security yourself?

                                            @Dashrender Remember Snowden, and how well government secures things.
