So that kind of violates the principles of the local first software since you still need the cloud and license key in order to run the app. It also means more work for the developer, since they have no other reason to provide a server in most cases. It also means that they need to have logins which are not actually necessary for local first software and one of the benefits. Not so easy.


A license key is not a login. And a server like that is not a big deal.

Interesting. I will contemplate. Thanks for explaining.
