The intended meaning was: "Making it easy to run apps on your own server is the only way to make open source web apps viable."

However, it was easy to interpret: "Sandstorm is the only way to make open source web apps viable."

I couldn't think of an easy way to clarify, so I removed the word "only" to sound less Trumpian.

Let's make Sandstorm great again!

…s viable.

I've removed the word "only".

Additionally, Sacha Greif on Twitter expressed that the word "viable" here seems confusing, so I found a way to express the same thing without that word -- though of course the blog post still uses the word a lot.

I further updated this to avoid the word "viable".
