I have a Raspi 3b+ to play with, and thought about using it as a Google Drive alternative for collaborative docs since there are some cool stuff Google Docs can’t do, but LibreOffice do. Any similar experience?
CryptPad might work. Most of the heavylifting is clientside.
Last time I checked the OnlyOffice document editor wouldn’t run on ARM and the Collabora/Nextcloud office is very heavy on server resources.
Onlyoffice does now have an ARM version, I run it on a raspberry pi 4 (integrated with seafike), and it works fairly well. Can’t vouch for how much power it needs, to say if a pi 3b+ will be enough, though. Pretty sure it’s lighter than collabora, since more is done on the client side.
I agree with the other commenter that suggested cryptpad, though. If all you’re after is a Google docs like collaborative experience, cryptpad is brilliant, and much more resource friendly. (The office editor it uses is also a slightly modified Onlyoffice, so almost exactly the same feature set)

hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/libreoffice works. Make sure you use a 64bit OS

Oh wow. I didn’t know that there was a docker for Libreoffice. LinuxServer.io is always amazing for making these!
