Hey Lemmy! I’m ashamed to admit I haven’t yet quit Google Docs. I think I should especially since I got a lot of documents which I really have no reason to keep online, I’ve been doing so out of lazyness as I’m used to GDocs and its ease of use.
I’m looking for a text editor that lets me paste images straight from my clipboard into the documents, this is a must for my workflow.
Another feature I use a lot is the side menu/index, which is created automatically when I insert a header and lets me jump quickly to any part of my document.
With that in mind, the search function is also essential, I need this to either have a search bar or work with ctl+F
Of course I need some basic color and font size variation, and having the ability to create tables is handy but I don’t need any kind of math functionality.
I could use Libre Office but I’m looking for something bare bones and lightweight. I haven’t used LO in years so it may have changed, however from memory it’s pretty well fleshed out and I find all the extra features distracting especially since I don’t need them. I’m not sure though, perhaps I’m wrong and you can convince me?
Have you got any suggestions? TIA
As you are lazy, creating an account for cryptpad (for example at the instance adminforge.de) you can pretty much use it exactly like Google Docs. Just that it is private :) And adminforge.de is quite big so it should not just „loose“ your files like Google. Of course keeping it local is better as there is the very very small probability that your chosen instance goes offline/closes.
