Shit gets so crazy, I wish I had the tenacity to self host.

I think it's a lot more intimidating than it is actually hard. You could get a Raspberry Pi, Alternative, or a Home Assistant Yellow. Then there guides that can get you going in minutes. It's actually a pretty good time with the latest update introducing better onboarding.

I am not trying to convince you. But, I don't want to see anyone scared out either.
