So like OnlyOffice and LibreOffice Online?

Edit: to clarify: both of these products can be self hosted. OnlyOffice’s main business model is to sell hosting services, their software is AGPL v3.

I’m not complaining, but why create something from the ground up when they could be improving OnlyOffice or LibreOffice?

Honestly all the highlights are really cool. The non destructive editing is a game changer.

You can sign up for free on most servers. I think tchncs.de has video and audio conferencing enabled if you want to try that out.

I had just graduated, fresh engineer and super happy I landed a pretty good starting engineering job in a great company. I was quite lucky. Engineers dropping like flies, becoming taxi drivers, or whatever they could find to sustain their families. All investments everywhere were dwindling. Thankfully oil prices were high regionally so some remained.
