indeed that is a lot of work and the convenience factor is quite something.

getting off google microsoft is also important.

my main beef really is the lack of transparency - seems off to tout how "open source" all the other projects are, that you're profiting from, without making your own product open source

but if you're contributing back, that's something

how does your product compare to https://cloudron.io which offers all these services on a self-hosted (sovereign) basis for 15 bucks a month? (which excludes server costs to be fair)
