No one has yet convinced me that “cloud development environments” can come close to meeting the experience of lots of local, fast compute resources.

Add the expense of putting it in AWS where it seems like us-east-whatever suffers a major outage or problem more than once a year that results in almost-front-page news, and it really feels like a non-starter.

This is the exact reason why we have built Daytona.io. It is a self-managed dev env platform that supports dev containers and we have plans for other standards such as devfile.

This only runs on AWS, so I guess "self-hosted" means "runs in your AWS account not ours". I don't understand the benefit.
