This is why I'm building Timelinize [1]. It's a follow-up to my open source Timeliner project [2], which has the potential to download all your digital life onto your own computer locally, and projects it all onto a single timeline, across all data sources (text messages, social media sites, photos, location history, and more).

Laypeople don't know that systemd exists. They will install a webserver or something and the package manager will automatically install and enable its unit file.

For silo self hosting, Internet outage should not affect your services, but for most of local-first services it's critical to maintain your systems security with necessary credentials. For an example consider a rental car that you take for camping in the countryside. Internet outage that makes your rental car useless is unacceptable.
Also, what prevents my TLS/SSH/whatever certs from working in an offline setup? i do that all the time without downsides, so i'm probably missing your point. if you have a page explaining your project and usecase feel free to link

You should probably use headscale instead of you care about self hosting. If you don't trust Google drive with your passwords, why would you trust a company's server that manages access to all of your devices?
Never heard of headscale before. Doesn't it require the control server to be accessible publicly?

*headscale If you care about privacy or self hosting, use headscale instead. You have no idea what tailscale is really doing.
