The point is the UX is identical with Coolify on a cheap VPS compared to overpriced Heroku/Netlify/Vercel.

Just comparing exact performance and price and features.

A blank linux VPS has a different UI/UX.

Why does it seem like you're deliberately misunderstanding? Do you work for a platform?

I feel like you got lost in my example/rambling that I probably shouldn't have said like that.

If I am a user looking for some place to host my application, I do not care that one service can be self hosted. I have already made my decision that I am going to host it somewhere else, so I am not going self host the PaaS just to host my application myself.

It can still be self hostable, just put it in the developer documentation and not necessarily promoting it so much on the main page.
