What was wrong with libre?

    Pretty sure Libre only does local document collaboration, having it online is helpful for teams far from each other or who simply don't have the infrastructure for their own central server of this kind.

    Well this has been running in our Nextcloud and works pretty well collaboratively :) https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online not sure how it scales, but definitely an alternative that can be built on

    Thanks for this; I may use it to build out my NextCloud server. I’ve already used it to replace shared calendars and contacts.

    If you're using Nextcloud All In One then it's easy to enable it in the AIO settings.

    If you're not, I suggest looking into it. It's the new officially recommended way of installing and it's been great.

    Nextcloud has an export/import data function but at the time I did it I only had a few GB of data so not sure how well it scales.
