I guess I don't mind if I can self host the server. If I can't I have no interest in touching it.
For sure! self hosting is the way
True: self hosting is beneficial, Foss office suite is great to empower us, users... etc.
The point of the software presented isn't aimed at regular computer users that would enjoy a bit of independence, it looks more like something aimed at the enterprise administrative level that people may stumble upon while searching for a document (who needs versioning apart from filename extensions if you alone work on the documents).See it as: you may find , download and use updated packaged software on github but in reality it's really a tool aimed at devs before being a software repository for end users.
I see this as software mainly for the French or German state administration being made public for others to enrich, integrate... Like Olvid is a matrix based E2E encrypted, real authenticated identity based messenger made available to the public once the French government financed it's development for it's own use.
