The FAQ says "Superset has a free tier. The source code is available on GitHub under Elastic License 2.0 (ELv2), so you can inspect and self-host it subject to the license terms." - what is self hosting in this context, isn't it a desktop app? Is this why it wants me to sign into something? What exactly am I signing in to?

So we also ship a cloud service along with Superset, which enables our Linear integration, Slack integration, and our multiplayer capabilities / remote workspaces.

When you sign in, you're signing into our cloud service!

Got you, thanks. So if I don't need those things I can skip the sign-in?

Ah unfortunately not through the hosted product, but if you fork and build it you should be able to skip the sign-in
