    CryptPad is the platform they’re moving to, to save you a click.

      Are they allocating a budget to fund the project? This would be great to see UN backing and the features improve over time as a result

      Edit: Nonprofit hosting for CryptPad starts at 1,500 EUR/year

    As someone who has used cryptpad, it works. It sucks major cheeks, but it gets the job done.

      maybe EU will donate a bit, moving the needle.

      It is a bit confusing at first, but with the adoption of more onlyoffice tools I think it will make it easier on folks to use it.

    Any buyer’s remorse yet, Sundar?
