Sorry to hear this! :( I use a self-hosted Sandstorm instance almost daily, and I'm very happy with it. I don't really agree with some of the critiques posted here regarding the UI and UX. Sure, it could have used further improvements, but I feel it's simple, functional, and intuitive enough. Not at all a critical shortcoming imo (well, perhaps for use cases where mobile support is essential). For me a limiting factor is that some of the apps do not have feature-parity with their regular version. In particular, plugin support, which is very important for example for WordPress, ShareLaTeX, and IPython. Another thing is the pace in which new apps are packaged for Sandstorm, and the trust that there will be regular and timely updates. Of course this also depends very much on the community, and the ease with which things can be packaged, but it felt like app porting lost a bit of momentum. Regarding the future of the project, are there any other potential avenues for financing further development, other than buying Oasis hosting? I very much want to see this project continued!
