I do not understand why they used OnlyOffice as a starting point rather than LibreOffice. I'm guessing because it can be embedded in web shit? I can see why NextCloud pushed for it.

I believe there's gonna be some reverse engineering until they're gonna have parity

Yeah lol, f*** them for trying to be less dependant on American tech am I right?

It's a fork.

Because every other option is objectively worse in one way or another.

The only upside to other options is basically just a moral one. And at a point you kinda have to stop giving a damn about morals and just use what works if you don't want to endlessly waste time and tax payer money.

It just is what it is unfortunately.
