Why Local-First Apps Haven’t Become Popular?

Offline-first apps promise instant loading and privacy, but in practice, very few apps get offline support because getting sync right is surprisingly hard.

🚀 Local software is easier to scale, said no one ever! 😂 But hey, let's ride the Hacker News wave 🌊 and revel in the marketing miracle of buzzword-laden techno-babble like "edgefirst" and "ondevice." 🎉 Who knew free advertising could sound so... technical? 🖥️💥

Local First Software Is Easier to Scale

The title of this post is somewhat misleading. Local-first software rarely needs to be scaled at all.

My Mac Contacted 63 Different Apple Owned Domains in One Hour - While Not is Use

During a one hour period today, my computer contacted 63 different Apple domains while i was not logged on and using it. I have been trying to minimize to the extent possible the reach of big tech into my life. A full 25% of the DNS queries from one of my computers (M2 MBA with macOS 15.4) are to Apple owned domains - even though my DNS provider (NextDNS) blocks Apple's native telemetry. Additionally, since I do not use Apple for my mail, contacts, calendars, podcasts or news, I already have the routes to those Apple services blacklisted. Interestingly, my 2019 Intel MBP with the same DNS settings has less than 3% of it's DNS queries hitting Apple domains.

I am an android user. Is there any software on there for making local lists and notes ? What I mean is software that is not storing things in its own cloud resources or straight up pinging the mother ship every minute with unknown packets ?

Local software is what we need. Software that is not syphoning off our data.
