    Nextcloud paired with Collabora is awesome! (Might be just be called “Nextcloud Office” depending on how it’s packaged up, but it’s the same thing). With Google Docs, you have drive, but the “files” it syncs for your Google Docs documents are just links to open Google Docs in a web browser, you need to manually export them if you want real files. With Nextcloud/Collabora, you literally have .odt or .docx files synced to your computer, but you can open them online with Collabora and have a full “google docs” or better collaborative online interface. Make a change, and the .odt file on your hard drive changes. You can work or collaborate in Word, Libreoffice, or in the web browser with Collabora on the same files (synchronously, only with the latter, but asynchronously with any of them - with the obvious caveat that slight formatting differences will always happen with different applications so keep your collaborative documents simple). It’s brilliant, and the interface is more feature-full than google docs too.
