In the activist space I'm consistently seeing Nextcloud lose out to Cryptpad and the likes of HedgeDoc where collaborative document editing is of primary importance to the group. Nextcloud, excellent in so many ways, has the dependency of a separate document server for Collabora if it is to come close to other alt document editors whose code runs client-side. Nextcloud's own 'Office' solution looks great but is not meeting the needs of groups collaborating around a document, even at small scales
