@LibreOfficeDE
Das ist super, danke. :)
Ich vermute, dieses Update hat noch nicht den (lange ersehnten) typografischen Quantensprung an Bord?
Wie gesagt: Ein gewiefter #ParagraphComposer würde #LibreOffice Writer auch als Textsatz-System nutzbar machen – nicht nur als Textverarbeitungsprogramm.
VIELE der per #Selfpublishing Veröffentlichenden würden sich freuen. 
Ha! Timeline perfect storm.

@paulhulford I like #Syncthing for mesh file sync and use it across Linux, Android, BSD, and Windows.
I'm afraid I do not have a suggestion for an online editor like Docs, but you could use #LibreOffice to edit documents being synched by Syncthing. This would not have the collaborative feature of Docs, though.
#PSA: AFAICT, #LibreOffice doesn't check for changes to a file while you have it open. So if you need to leave a document open that's in a shared directory (like a cloud drive, or something served by Syncthing/rclone), hit Ctrl+S to save, then Ctrl+Shift+m to switch that LibreOffice window to read-only mode.
Then, when you come back to edit the document, hit Ctrl+Shift+m three times. (read-only -> read/write -> read-only -> read/write), because it will only load changes to the document when switching from read/write mode to read-only mode.
