Great premise.

I like the idea that you can just use the software for free, or pay for cloud hosting.

But it seems like you need a cloud account even to use it locally.

The monetisation strategy seems to affect the product negatively.

Point taken. Not opposed to self-hosting, its just that we haven't seen interest in that so far. And the way things are right now, it can be very complex to setup.

Unlike Redis, which is incredibly easy to run locally.
