It's not the source that's the problem; we're drowning in open source.

It's that power has shifted to centralized clouds and nobody has stepped up to make self-hosting as turnkey as open source is.

We need an open source movement and ethos for DIY cloud hosting, if not shared resource fabrics.

Sadly the only thing that I can think that would make self hosting easy is if operated like a botnet/virus.
