Self-hosted community vs. a SaaS platform — your take?

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.
