What products do you wish you could self-host? (alien.top)

This hasn't been asked in a while, and I really loved reading the last discussion so I'm hoping to kick it off again and see what has changed!

What I'd like to know is:

- What specific products do you wish you could host on your own infrastructure, but the product does not offer such a deployment method

- Do you or would you use the product without being able to self-host? I.E. In its current state

- Do you think your employer, if any, holds the same opinions?

ChatGPT. I want it to have full access to my mail, contacts, photos, videos, git repositories, and I want to be sure it's not leaving my premises not matter what. I want to say 'find my letter to my former boss where I was talking about infra', and it find the letter where is no word 'boss', 'infra', or 'former', and it is the letter I was searching.

Not self-hosted, but sounds a lot like [Rewind](https://www.rewind.ai/). Pretty cool project, and it seems like they take privacy and security seriously. I still want to be able to self-host it though. Would feel much safer.
