+ <h2>Why self host instead of using discord, gmail, github, etc...</h2>
-</body>
+ <p>
+ Simple — Your interests are not aligned with that of these for-profit
+ companies. Every now and then, this simple fact manifests in
+ different ways and goes in your vison, yet, because of the convinence
+ offered by these platforms, people ignore it. _Every_ single of these
+ 'free services' have commited unethical acts we choose to ignore, the
+ list goes <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamite_(Taio_Cruz_song)">on and on and on</a>.
+ <p>
+ The company might be good at hiding their mis-aligned interests, as is
+ the case with discord, but the simple fact of knowing their intentions
+ is living rent-free in the back of your head, maybe even subconsciously
+ affecting your decisons of usage with these platforms.
+ <p>
+ Now, there are companies that are focused on making a change,
+ for example Drew DeVault's sourcehut, and if you are willing
+ to pay for them you shoud. But if you are like me, and have
+ more time and less money, just self host already.
