    Good on them, but I Wonder why they can’t just build on top of something open source like Nextcloud.

    It already has the majority of the Office-365 suite

      I’d sooner see them integrate with https://cryptpad.fr/ which is another (jointly) French funded project to provide a secure collaborative office environment. I think this French Visio mostly targets (video) conferencing rather than the entire office suite.

          Ah, that sits at an interesting spot between collaborative Obsidian and classic Word. I only just noticed their other existing products but knew of CryptPad from earlier posts. I think it’s great to see these alternatives pop up so we don’t funnel ourselves into the next monopoly.
