  Couldn’t the same be said for just about any self-hosted app? You can watch video files with a local video player, so no need for Jellyfin; you can save passwords in KeePass, so no need for Vaultwarden; etc.

  Seems to me like, if you’d like to have access to this app along with your data from any computer without having to overlay a separate data syncing solution and install a local app on each of those computers, that’s justification enough. Or maybe I’m just not understanding your critique here…

    You text editor is not a multiplayer app.

      Not many… but this community isn’t for those people. It’s for people who are already predisposed to self-hosting software.

        That don’t mean we install every slop app in the whole repo.

      But I have multiple devices and want to access it from all of them.

      Tools like these are used collaboratively by many people for various reasons. Someone in this thread said they’d use it to manage people in work projects, for instance.
