Thoughts on tilde hosting

I had considered running my own tilde, but like...

1. It's a lot of work for one person. Having to manage /other/ users adds an order of complexity to the administration load. I think I'm fine hosting various web services and privacy front-ends.

2. There are already plenty of great tildes out there. It would be better if I just contribute to those.

I've been out-sourcing my RSS aggregation to (previously) envs.net and (now) vern.cc. envs.net offers TinyTinyRSS, and I find the UI/UX rather cumbersome and annoying. vern.cc offers FreshRSS and Miniflux. I've come to prefer the minimalism of Miniflux. It has just what I want and nothing more. I can also use it with elfeed on Emacs. I signed up to use vern.cc's Soju IRC bouncer. I'm currently running my own instance of The Lounge, but I like Soju's features, and the senpai IRC client seems to suck less than the other options.
