As a community I think its a good thing to be moving away from bots pulling specifically from reddit. There are several others on other instances just filling up space.
I think if its a narrow case and specific to a community, like a bot that pulls from one news source or one youtube channel and reposts.
But right now there are so many bots just spamming the feed with crap not even their creators are engaging with.

Passing versions back and forth with comments and track changes. Basic details around formatting. Again, I don’t blame LO, I blame MS, but its simply more straightfoward to work in native office.

I will consider this. I don’t have a problem paying for software. So this seems potentially viable. It also seems potentially un/under tested for my use case. I really can-not have the situation where things dont basically “just work” with regards to document collaboration.
- Comment on Self-hosting paradox: Windows for specifically MS word 8 months ago:
Yeah. I use LibreOffice for everything but my professional writing. I can’t use it for that. It simply doesn’t play nice in a manner I can rely on for professional collaboration when everyone else is using either native microsoft office or office on apple.
If I lived in a world where everyone was on libreoffice, it probably would be fine. And I don’t blame LO for the issue, I think MS specifically makes their product hard to cooperate with. But that doesn’t resolve the issue of passing drafts back and forth with collaborators.

So I start the VM when I need it, use the app I need, shut it back down. The VM has no internet access, only a designated VLAN with no outbound, and any documents going to or from I use a thumb drive. Excessive, yeah, but its how things work for me.
This was my thinking, but office suite, and the documents would get saved to the NAS. How do you manage it as a VM? Are you using proxmox or similar? Do you use a setup script of somekind? What version of microsoft? Keys?

No… but we do need to be able to access all features of document composition. I’ve never used the free web version. We’re pretty hung up on doing things locally, on our compute, without having to have access to the broader internet.
