How does one self-host Obsidian? Does that just mean file sync? What am I missing?

The plug in “self hosted livesync” most likely. You need a couchdb server for it.

I just set this up yesterday, coincidentally. I have it behind a reverse proxy + subdomain so I and my wife can share notes easily wherever we are. Mainly shopping lists, projects, and other things.

You’re welcome! If you use unraid, you can also skip docker compose and use the “official” docker container from couchdb, see my comment in that thread for more info.
