How much of the country is truly technical enough to install (and want to install) self-hosted solutions though. I'm an engineer by day, and even I can't be bothered when google does practically everything I want it to

Of course that's the very Apple approach. Why not give them the option of using their automatic price adjustments rather than making people use it?
