Self-hostable is a huge selling point honestly. We've been exploring this space too and the biggest pain with bug reporting tools is always the "can you reproduce it?" back-and-forth. Capturing console logs + network requests automatically is the real unlock. Does Crikket support element-level selection or is it more of a full-page screenshot approach?
