If people manage their own data, that essentially means each person has their own database. And a database has to be connected to an application. Whenever the database schema changes, the application's CRUD operations have to be updated as well.

In the end, it seems likely that everyone will develop and maintain their own web application, and if others need access to their data, they'll expose it through APIs.
