I quit Google Docs and switched to CryptPad last year but I gotta say, sometimes it's not easy.
I am willing to put up with rough edges and weird issues like taking over 30 seconds for a page to load and render, but I can see how normies would just stick with Google's offerings.
I will not go back to Google because fuck those fuckers, but as we've learned I have a high tolerance for pain.

One of the biggest reasons now that I think I may stay as a freelancer and not job hunt is that I don't want to be forced to use some "productivity" suite like #google #docs or #microsoft

A new #Nextcloud adventure: having installed the new Social refactoring and passed the webfinger and ssl tests, was still unable to load some profiles and no interactions went out or came in.
Then I noticed PullRequest-5 - not knowing at all what I was doing - so I installed gh, authorized it, did the pull, composer, run sequence, and while the existing open tab for Social continued as before, 'Social' was now gone from the NC admin and menu!
"app": "core",
"method": "GET",
"url": "/settings/apps/list",
"message": "Could not read app info file for app \"social\""
Google/DDG are mute on what or where an app info file might be, and NC docs only say you can register an app and maybe perhaps the tarball will contain one? Perhaps the PR munged it? 🤷
So a new adventure begins …
