I've been bitten too many times - is Ente a commercial product that pays lip service to self hosting as form of marketing, but with friction to guide you towards the hosted version (e.g. rocketchat and many others) or does it genuinely support self hosting as a first class product?
"Ente Photos is a paid service, but we offer 10GB of free storage. You can also >>clone this repository and choose to self-host<<."
So both forms...
