I can confirm that self-hosted is the best of both worlds: fully private and you control the access through your own infrastructure and all works in the browser. This simplicity is important for many small-medium companies. That is why my go-to tools for adhoc data slicing by non-technical users is https://www.metabase.com. I hope that Airbyte/dbt will be the ELT complement. And I hope to find a way to contribute.

Perfectly timed comment :) we are currently writing a tutorial at the moment to showcase how to use Airbyte/DBT/Metabase together
Shameless plug: for adhoc reporting by non-technical users our https://www.seektable.com also can be considered (esp. if your users heavily use pivot tables), it is closed-source but has a fully functional free accounts & self-hosted version.
To continue to compliment this stack, feel free to check out Grouparoo, a "reverse ETL" tool that is also self-hosted. https://www.grouparoo.com
