There is a cost aspect of self-hosting that one has to comtemplate. I haven’t looked at SimpleX hosting, but if it’s anything like Matrix on resources, it isn’t accessible or feasible even if it is possible.
Downvotes here showing it’s controversial, but I am willing to bet these folk have never given AsciiDoc, reStructuredText, & LaTeX a spin in comparison (for ‘real world’ documentation, etc. with multiple output targets) to actually know what they are talking about 😅

Google’s reviews have a lot of junk in them except the ones stating business closed/moved (OSM you can literally delete or move the POI, but less users).

If you want to keep the metadata on the photos, well GG since it and the color profiles will all be stripped
Be warned that the latest models ASUS removed the ability to unlock the devices
Sony phones have SD slots and… gasp a 3.5 mm headphone jack
Wut. It’s just as reproducible, flakes are mostly just a common unifying API with some extra CLI sugar for usability.
Linux is for all dresses. Configure your apparel like you do your distro.

GIMP 3.0 RC1 will come very soon (this month) & offers a lot of missing features users expect like adjustment layers (I’ve been waiting a decade for this).
