This makes sense, but "area" self-hosting for friends & family is risky! For myriad reasons, but one critical issue is the persistence of other people's data.

If your friend becomes unavailable for medical advice, you go somewhere else. Disappointing but not tragic.

If you as the F&F host become unavailable (travel, exhaustion, illness, injury, or worse), then all of those people who depend on you are badly stuck.

Things will keep running in your absence (assuming they're set up well) for somewhere between "a while" and "unexpectedly, no time at all". How do your F&Fs migrate all of their data to some other set of providers (different for each media type?), port domains, set up security, etc, without LOTS of help?

You're the sole provider of a unique (and no-cost) service. This is fantastic, but a tenuous situation for your users.

I have grand ideas for how to solve that problem! But they may be too grand to attempt without funding. And I don't think there is meaningful commercial potential (who would understand this well enough to pay for it?), so it's not an attractive financial investment.
