Although you raise a good point I do think much more than 1% of all web devs knows a lot about server side things. And for me using Firebase or similar is giving up too much control. I want to be able to build server side logic for apps.

Yes and yes. I was exagerating to make a point and the tradeoff is control. However, unless you run a datacenter with a fat connection, you also give control to your vps/cloud providers. Now, if by control you mean having 'readable' logic exposed on the client, that is also true, but some services like parse.com offer cloud code.
