Can you provide some information about why this is? Are you talking about vendor lock-in with certain cloud providers? Because Kubernetes, for instance, provides a layer that lets you move applications around (even locally with Minikube) with no fuss. So I suspect I'm misunderstanding what you're referring to.

Kubernetes obviously isn't that. 2) Kubernetes and other popular cloud infrastructure are designed to scale up to massive traffic, but they are not designed to scale down. For a personal server, you want to be able to install hundreds of apps on a single, modest machine, and only have apps consuming resources when the user is actively using them.
