At my work, we have a Nextcloud instance which is pretty nice. I've not yet
gotten into the collaboration parts of it, and I really want to since I use
Markdown and everyone else uses Google Docs. Which reminds me, I've gotta
post on the Orca list about tables in Docs being very slow to navigate.
NextCloud is really easy to setup, although the app itself hasn't always
been the easiest to do stuff like delete accounts from. The accompanying
site is really good though, but I prefer having everything I can local and
accessible easily.
