Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they’re all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

    Great, but creating such an app would require someone to foot the bill for hosting user data, the web app and this can easily amount to quite a substantial sum. Not to mention that supporting this app would also be quite time consuming.

          I don’t think it would be easier, I think it’s my answer to the question asked. Look at the post again.

          It’s nothing personal dude, it’s just someone’s question on the Internet. The question isn’t about whether it would be easy.

          i will never understand why people think this is a sensible response, just because someone says “it’s not an unsolvable problem” doesn’t mean they think it’s trivial for a toddler to implement in an evening.

      Not to mention you’d need moderation for all kinds of scams or even pedo stuff… It’s a risky one.
