Hi, I’m looking for a Google Docs alternative that will show how my drafts change every few minutes. I want to be able to show my writing process (i.e., show that my work isn’t AI-generated.) Either no AI features or the ability to turn them off/remove them from your screen. Ideally I’d like something that works for collaborating on projects, but that’s less important. Any recs?

I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure that Proton Docs, Collabora, and OnlyOffice all support auto-save, version history, and real-time collaboration.

    Not a full docs alternative, but https://etherpad.org/ has a timeline feature. For plain writing its adequate.

    Hadn’t heard about this. Interesting concept! Would it make any sense for a non-European, do you think?

    Just use collabora code or openoffice if you want to go this route, euro office is just a fork of openoffice.

    Both integrate nicely to nextcloud if you have a server lying around and want the full google suite like experience.
