Ok I'm guessing I need to do some more homework on Andrew...

I don't think I've ever read a more accurate description of a pop tart

Any chance this sudden illness is contagious, you know to close personal friends and colleagues

Oh as far as the hosting side? Well I'm not hosting it on my hardware, but as far as support goes that part will be on me and the open source community. If there's enough interest beyond just me then I'll probably get some help on the support side but I don't think it's going to require too much beyond what I already do. But definitely point taken

Oh this is definitely awesome, I have reminders on my calendar for things like this but then I forget to set them again! Going to check it out thanks

Yeah I was shopping the same, but found I wanted something more specific to family, and something that would be easier for my family to setup and use. That's the hardest part about self hosting is that sometimes it's really hard to setup for regular users and I can't get my family to use it. Of it's not just a sign in button it's too much for non-technical people

I'm trying to make sure that I have everything encrypted and secure. I just got it (I think) ready for public scrutiny [gulp]. So we will see but it is open source

Absolutely great points! And I love the idea of having an HTML export option and/or pdf option as well.

I'm hoping I'll be able to have some stars and history on that side at some point 😁

It looks like cloudflare has some mitigating services in place you can implement but that's for sure something I'm starting to look at

Don't feel picked on at all, these are great questions! Here's my thoughts:

What happens when you die?

• this is a great question and I'm actually adding an option where you can assign family members to be able to access your account and be able to upload the local content to the hosted. That way it can easily go from self hosted to cloud for when that happens and there's nobody technical to keep it up with a single button.

[I grouped the below questions together with the same answer] This is where backups matter, and I'm thinking of setting up a backup system where you can have it backed up wherever you want instead of using the hosted services I'll have up. Or at the very least a make it easy to setup for people

• What happens if your house is burgled or catches fire?
• How do you protect against pe(s)ts making themselves at home in your server?
• What happens with a power or internet outage?
• What happens with hardware failure?
• What happens if you suffer dementia?
• How are you dealing with data corruption?

[And the below grouped] This is where I'm looking at industry standards for managing and mitigating. Ensuring I have proper API key rotations, security scans, etc. The AI bots is interesting but I think needing an account for content should help on this side

• How are you dealing with AI bots?
• How are you mitigating hacking attempts, security, authentication and exploits?
• How do you mitigate against ransomware having entered your systems?

Really some great questions that got me thinking and making some changes to it

Yeah I felt the same, but figured that out would be good for people to have options 😃 especially to the point of being the only one in the family with the skills or motivation... I'm about the only technical one so I wanted to make it easy enough (the app itself more than the technical upkeep) so that they could just use it like they do Facebook but it still their data that they can own if they want

That's a very good point lol

I think maybe there's just not enough options for people or at least more specific to family anyways
