Isn't the direction we're taking with networking and connectivity kind of making this irrelevant? I always feel like local-first is a good idea but I am actually never without internet connection, and building a truly local-first anything is significantly more complicated than the alternative of "always online" for most domains, even if you use various helper libs. A lot of the pages talk about privacy reasons as well, but I don't get that either, if you want privacy then you want encryption, not local-first development.
Finally, in the end what you want to do with your work is to share it, meaning that "doing" your work is for a large part "sharing" your work, which is fundamentally not local-first.

Maybe I am the odd one out here.
