minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish9•2 years agoCan you self host libreoffice for a google docs alternative?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•2 years agoYes. Collabora is the maintainer for the online version (as well as the Android). Easiest way to host is via nextcloud.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•edit-22 years agoNo, Libre Office is offline only. You need to look at something like Only Office, a free/open source web based office suite, which supports collaboration. https://www.onlyoffice.com/blog/2023/07/self-hosted-onlyoffice-docspace
