I meant more in the sense of “all I need to continue using this is my files and the app itself”. Figma doesn’t even support working offline. You’re right about the other services storing critical data (except Google — I only use them for their search analytics, which is data they already have anyway). But I would like to move away from Notion and Trello at some point for those reasons. As for Cloudflare — I need a DNS provider and a CDN anyway. If I had to make a change there, I'd probably cut Netlify out and either host the website manually with nginx or using Cloudflare Workers.

> Figma doesn’t even support working offline. This must have changed from the last time you looked into it. It's not fully-featured when offline, but "If you continue working [offline], Figma will store any changes you make in your browser, and sync then when you're back online." https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040328553-Can-I-work-offline-with-Figma- https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040328553-Can-I-...

  Yeah, but you can't start using Figma when you are offline. That's the problem. E.g. when you ran out of your internet data

    Fair enough! This is a good reminder that many people don't have reliable internet access, thank you.

Curious if someone just cloned Trello, could roughly offer what they offer scale wise. But said "we don't store any of your data". Not sure how, maybe encrypted at rest so it's not possible for them to gleam info... Would that still be profitable somehow? Not sure if data storing is where most of the money comes from, specifically Trello. I use Trello too now having doubts if I should detail out aspects of my life. Admittedly I have built my own note-taking type apps however can't deny the interface of Trello so convenient.
