Hey, c/selfhosted! Thanks to all who participated in my recent '2026 Self-Host User Survey'. This community contributed a bunch to this year's increase in respondents (+52%), and I'm incredibly grateful for the support.

The results are visualized as usual via Chart.js. Happy to talk through any of the results or provide more details where things might not be clear.

New this year is a section on AI usage, a Linux distribution question, and the ability to overlay prior year responses on the charts for easier year-over-year comparisons.

Thanks again!

Hm. More people use Arch Linux than Fedora for self-hosting.

(I'm one of them though)

    That is a very close spread on reverse proxies.
    I also bet Forgejo is happy with that selfhosted number.

    Would have liked to seen the donations spread a bit closer.

    Sort of the state of modern video games: the ones you can self-host are just about all survival games. I have to go back almost 20 years to find a self-hosted FPS I enjoy.
