> What is your motivation? Privacy and/or data protection?

For me, those things are nice benefits but not the motivation. It's just a desire to own my tools and remove the magic wherever possible, and not pay a big corporation who is constantly tweaking/changing things that I might not like. It's the same reason I migrated everything I host off of Azure and onto a VPS, and why I moved from Jetbrains Rider to Neovim, and so on.
