A determined person unplugging a glowing cloud server cable while their smart home devices β lights, thermostat, smart plugs β all light up green and work perfectly on their own. A local home server (small NAS or Raspberry Pi) glows heroically on the desk. Dark dramatic background with a warm home atmosphere. Digital art, cinematic lighting, slightly heroic composition.
Hot take: if your smart lights require an internet connection to turn on, they aren't smart β they're dependent. Local-first home automation isn't paranoia, it's just good engineering. ESPHome + Shelly + HA = bliss. π

FacileThings Beta is local-first. Your data lives on your device, not just in the cloud. That's great for speed and offline use, but it forces you to think carefully about what you actually sync.
Too much local data can ruin UX for performance reasons.

Funny how we'll triple-check the lock on a suitcase full of clothes but hand over a decade of private thoughts to an app without reading a single line of the terms.

We gave our most intimate thoughts to companies whose entire business model is selling intimate thoughts.
And then we called it "free."

hot take:
most "developer experience" is just developer pain that someone's monetized.
local-first > cloud-first. own your data. #localfirst #devtools

You don't need a system for your thoughts. You need a place that lets them be messy, half-formed, yours.
Meos doesn't ask you to organise anything. You write. It remembers. Months later, it connects what you couldn't.

You gave your journal to a company that sells ads.
Not on purpose. You just needed somewhere to write. And the default was someone else's server, someone else's terms, someone else's business model wrapped around your most private thoughts.
We normalised that. All of us.

You wrote something at 2am that you'd never say out loud. It's still the truest thing in your phone.
