And this is exactly the reason I self host[0]. I am pretty sure it's not just me. I have seen r/selfhosted[1] skyrocket in it popularity over past year or two. The number of application that you could self host are increasing daily. The only problem at the moment with self hosting seems to be the maintenance and setup but that also will be solved once many people start doing it. They say Earth is round. Everything repeats. Self hosting too will become mainstream once again

> Want a password manager? It's a SaaS now.
No, not all of them. Here is a password manager that runs locally, no SaaS: https://www.pwsafe.org/index.shtml -- plus here is a long list of compatible alternate versions that also are not Saas: https://www.pwsafe.org/relatedprojects.shtml
> Note taking app? SaaS.
Hmm, purists would say Emacs and Org-Mode here, but there's also a whole host of open source text editors that are not SaaS, and function just fine for "note taking".
> Image editor or office suite? SaaS (thanks Adobe...)
Again, no. The GIMP (https://www.gimp.org/) runs locally just fine for editing images on my systems, with no SaaS anywhere in sight.
Also, Libreoffice (https://www.libreoffice.org/) runs locally, with no SaaS, just fine as well.
But you can, in the case of spotify: https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot
