  • 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.

  • That’s true, but its not always about the server, people tend to download images/memes/etc with the intent to edit/share. If you were on macos and happened to download a webp image in the 10 years that Apple didn’t support them, you were in for some googling and/or frustration.

  • its interesting to me that this is only really an issue on proprietary OS’s (mac/windows) as i’ve never had an issue with any image or video formats when using linux. i use all three but linux is my primary OS. mac/windows mostly stay at work.
