Here was my reply, but of course a nuanced refutation doesn't get as much attention as an agitative tirade :) There's definitely truth to the fact that our self-hosted setup requires a lot of Docker containers and thus resources, but things like "your notes are not yours anymore" and "proprietary solutions for everything" are very much egregiously exaggerated for effect. A nuanced, honest take wouldn't be homepage worthy, and OP's awareness of this is evident by their excellent headline writing :) https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/10oz4pl/im_done_with_standard_notes_why_im_abandoning/j6id85v/ https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/10oz4pl/im_done... I will say that attempting to experiment with self-hosted economics has always been a dangerous undertaking, but I believe the current state wasn't viable and made it so that avoiding prioritizing self-hosting UX was more economically lucrative than making self-hosting as great as it can be. And the latter is something I'd love to focus on more.
