  Markdown supports images and tables. It may depend on the rendered though. The GitHub flavour of Markdown supports this for example and I expect Latex supports it too. If existing tools don’t exist to get the height of elements you can probably make it yourself fairly easily if you you the specific font and styling the renderer uses. You’d just have to parse the file, which is basically plain text, and run the same calculations the renderer would. For which approximation might be fine depending on the use case

  This is very different from docz or odt, but maybe its worth looking into converting markdown or latex to PDF with something like pandoc. Maybe that or some other more open and less complex format might help with this?

  Hetzner storage boxes look really compelling. Thanks for sharing!

  Personally I use tailscale which should punch through double NAT. It’s a wire guard based mesh VPN, but an exit node should make it a normal VPN

  You can use headscale with tailscale of you want to self host it. Headscale is a community made server implementation for tailscale
