I tried to self host penpot a few months ago but the app would crash after a few minutes and not properly show the canvases. So a no for me

They seem to update very frequently; I don't know if it still crashes now — I'm planning to try it myself.

What i tested happned 5 months ago. if the issue exist 1 month ago too it is the same problem.

The problem lies with the whole thing is XML and SVG unlike Figma's Canvas/WebASM . The whole thing is unable to scale.

		They are actually working on a new canvas-based rendering engine in order to get away from using the DOM so that should help performance quite a bit. https://community.penpot.app/t/its-time-for-penpot-to-almost...
