Yeah I would prefer to move my data from the cloud to my personal computer. With fully automated cloud-based end-to-end encrypted backups, of course. Even web apps have good access to local storage now. If I want to share my personal data with someone, I can send it to them.
I'm sure there are a few applications where something more complicated is required. Neither lemmy comments nor biometric data from a "smartwatch" are among them.
