      Check out CryptPad.org, it’s:

      • Open Source; so it can’t be taken away from you should the org cease to exist.
      • Self-hostable; although you can use or pay to use other people’s instances.
      • Collaborative; with real-time editing like Google docs
      • Federated; so you can collaborate with others whether you’re using a self-hosted instance or using any other server.
      • End-to-end encrypted: The server admins can’t see any of your data.

      Only downsides so far is that the UX is a bit slow when first loading documents and there are no mobile apps.

      EDIT: Forgot to add the important par, they recently added support for OnlyOffice in the browser, which to me, was a pretty big deal.

        Love Cryptpad, but am I the only one for whom the loading indicator gives a bad flashback to early js framework web development where every website was 16 times the initial load time, 4 times the overall size and just more buggy. Website SPA or not have rarely a good reason to have a loading indicator for the initial load the browser already does that.
