I also self host this with docker using a docker postgres backend to persist data and another container to dump, encrypt and upload to S3. You can also set it to store images and attachments in the database too which makes it easy to back up. It's a bit basic, but it's all I need for a few kanban boards. The mobile interface could use some love, but I tend to use it from my laptop anyway.

My workflow is an "eventually" column that I dump any idea I have for something I'd like to do. As soon as it pops into my head I capture it as a task. Once a week or two sort and expand on these tickets, or split them up if they are too big and pull the ones I want to work on into the "ready" column. I manually limit tasks to 5 in the "in progress" column, but it also contains tasks I'm blocked on.

I really recommend people try out Kanboard if they have the desire to self host. Once I set it up in a docker-compose file along with a backup container, it's needed no management since.
