Editing Introduction to a Self Managed Life: a 13 hour & 28 minute presentation by FUTO software (section)

== This is a bad idea. ==

We are going to set this up on our mailcow virtual machine at 192.168.5.3.

This is a bad idea. You shouldn’t do this. Not only are you starting off as a beginner self-managing something that literally is the key to every aspect of your life, but you aren’t even saving money. Simple basics like the <code>haveibeenpwned</code> integration to check for leaked passwords will cost you more to do yourself when self-hosting than it would if you just paid Bitwarden.

A big reason we’re doing this is freedom; we want freedom from crappy companies. Bitwarden isn’t a bad company. They treat users well, and they give you the freedom to self-host your own instance with software they’ve open-sourced. If anything, these are the types of companies that have done more to earn the public’s trust than the rest.
