I was pointing out to a friend this morning that one of the enormous virtues of self-hosting stuff (for all the hassle it sometimes entails) is being able to try out software that’s often rather expensive in the SaaS / managed universe.

What’s the best example of a software that’s really expensive but which you can get for free if you know how to self host it?
