I share ocdtrekkie's confusion here.

Your original complaint was the lack of a "miniflare", i.e. a simulator for local development purposes. But you can run Sandstorm itself locally and there are in fact tools to streamline the process of doing app development using a local Sandstorm server.

Now you seem to be arguing something about how running Sandstorm locally is too much work for end users, who would prefer to use the hosted version? But I thought we were talking about app developers. End users don't need a "miniflare".

Please reply indicating whether you agree or disagree with the following statement:

"The Cloudflare developer experience with miniflare is worse than that of Sandstorm."

The experience configuring sendmail is worse than configuring icewm if you want to play audio files.
If what you're looking for here is someone to confirm that your crummy false equivalence is crummy and false, then that's doable. (Say the word if so.)
