I do it because I like having full control over my data and services. Nobody can take it away from me or change the terms in which its provided.

Few reasons. One, to help me advance in my career. Two, because I like the idea of open source. Three, tech business are kind of acting evil for money, so I'm going back to being self reliant and piracy.
