Gun Maker Sig Sauer Citing National Security to Keep Documents from Public (practicalshootinginsights.com)

Most Electron/desktop apps rely on GitHub Releases + Squirrel or SaaS for updates. I built FaynoSync, an open-source self-hosted API server for managing app versions and updates.

It supports multiple channels, platforms, architectures, private apps with auth, multiple S3 providers, flexible user management, telemetry, and critical updates.

Repo: https://github.com/ku9nov/faynoSync

My question:

Would you self-host an updater instead of using GitHub/SaaS?

Which features are essential?

Or is the problem already solved well enough?
