I recently discovered yunohost, a French project for easy selfhosting. Does anyone have experience with that?

Yunohost is okayish. Some apps sadly are badly maintained and therefore upgraded with more delay than I considered acceptable (but that has improved afaik)and integration into a single "look and feel" is a bit lacking. Nevertheless it's solid in the end.

If you are willing to pay something Cloudron may be an alternative for you as well - very well maintained product, good support team and rock solid from my experience - and it's a non-US/non-China company. (German to be exact) But it costs money for more than 2 applications. I nevertheless went with them - I don't self host as a hobby, I self-host because I want shit to work. Between job and family I have no time to fiddle around with things and keep everything updated on a short notice. I have project where I can do that, but they are not something my family or myself depend on. (And they integrate nicely with Cloudron as you can add "custom" Apps/use it as a proxy and OpenID Provider)
