    • Are the documents you edit with the online editor files which are visible in the online drive?: Yes. It works like Google drive basically, and yea, I don’t use an external editor or something. I just create or upload a file to the cloud, and edit it there using the built in web editor (you just open the file and it opens the editor)

    • Does nextcloud use the open document specifications for saving documents (e.g. .odt, .ods)?: Yes. I believe they use a modified version of Collabora or something. By default, you use the same extensions you’d use with libre software like collabora or libreoffice. It supports opening documents from word, PowerPoint and excel… but often fucks up the formatting in some parts (much like libreoffice)

    • Can you view these files without opening them in the editor (like the preview in google drive)?: No. You view them only via the editor. It should respect permissions though, so if you share a file with read access only, they won’t be able to edit it in the editor.

    You can use any format you want in Nextcloud, it’s just that they might not be supported by their built in editors, but they’ll work fine.

    The reason I use the built in editors is that multiple people can work on a single file at the same time


    You’re welcome!



  • Nextcloud does have a problem with the online editor. It frequently bugs out and moves things out of order or just doesn’t feel snappy.

    Some time ago there was also saving issues

    I only sync my computer and I have nothing to report. It just works. There’s just a small bug when you just create a file on windows and start editing it, the file shows as being edited by Nextcloud for a couple of seconds, but then it works. It’s just on the initial creation.

    Because governments can’t remove it from you, because the value is universal and bypasses the flawed banking system, allowing for really low fees for money exchange internationally.

    Crypto is pseudonymous and anonymous if you know how to hide your traces. You’re forgetting about privacy coins.

    And the non-reversal aspect is also nice for vendors. You don’t know how much abuse some fields have.

    PoS coins have no climate impact… etc

    My “easy” solution for b) :

    1. Buy XMR from wherever you want (even KYC exchanges if you want and can)
    2. (if you’re already on a CEX and don’t want to bother, withdraw USDT/USDC/LTC/BCH… any crypto with not insane withdrawal fees and which is fairly popular, and then exchange it on a non-KYC exchange for XMR)
    3. Exchange your XMR at a non-KYC (or non systematical) exchange for your desired traceable cryptocurrency.

    I can recommend https://trocador.app/ - nice exchange aggregator that doesn’t require you to log into the exchange’s website, and that displays the level of privacy of each exchange.

    By using this method, you always have non-ML non-KYC crypto that can be used to buy anything

    For additional (and true) privacy, please churn the XMR while you have it. If you know, you know, but that’s a power user move.
