Hi folks, we have received feedback about the pricing for our docs.coop instance hosting.

We have decided to drop the price to 30 GBP per month for a small Docs instance.

This comes with an Single Sign On oauth server (such as Keycloak or Authentik).

We think this represents excellent value and will hopefully be enough to support us making this exciting open source Google docs competitor available for the people.

We can offer additional paid support on top of this to integrate further into your existing infrastructure.

Unlock collaborative document editing without the oligarchs.

There’s a thing called the politician’s fallacy that explains a lot about congressional dysfunction. Here’s why this is especially tricky when it comes to tech + free speech:

I'll bring some drinks and snacks and I'll be wearing an orange hat.

Lots of free software peeps at #UNOpenSourceWeek @karen @cel

I'm tagging along with some friends who are attending the UN Open Source Week.

We're thrilled to announce our new project:
https://docs.coop/

Building on the great work of Suite Numerique (https://docs.numerique.gouv.fr/home/), we are offering an opportunity to be part of a new collaborative Docs platform as a service, that provides an ethical alternative to Google Docs, Office 365, Notion etc.

Docs is the result of a joint effort lead by the French 🥖 (DINUM) and German 🥨 (ZenDiS) governments which represents a paradigm shift in the way open source software is funded.
