Thanks for the interesting article.

Is anyone not just me hesitant to run their own servers? I think about patching and it becomes a full on devops job to set up something safe and stay on top of upgrades etc.

One idea Ive had is that if the web facing part of the software is just a form saver. It persists the form to disk for retrieval by the local-first server that I run on my laptop after pulling all records.

Would like to talk to persons about this topic: local first and low-maintenance service design SAAS

I wrote about an imaginary cloud service that would be about hosting forms for batch processing later this is similar to the workspace.zip in this article but this is used for the app itself.
