I always thought one of the big barriers was porting existing apps: you need to disable/rip out their auth and user management, and you need to pare them down to operate on only a single unit of whatever thing they manage (a grain). These changes are often hard to upstream, so you’ll be applying upstream updates over and over. I was hoping we’d see a bunch of small purpose-built apps that were perhaps companions to a standalone app that just needed a small internet-accessible component, such as IoT devices or even mobile apps that need a way to host shareable links.
