No worries, you don't sound dismissive, though let me address your points: First of all, Etebase is not "a whole SaaS", since it's open-source you can self host it, so the SaaS is optional. As for what the GP was asking, I disagree. I think it's exactly what he was asking for. He was lamenting the lack of complete solutions, and having to figure out things on your own. Without the server part and network protocol, Etebase is essentially just libsodium, which GP already mentioned.
