French gov's open source alternative to Notion or Outline
For e2ee you might want to have a look at CryptPad (https://cryptpad.org). You can test it on the free instance https://cryptpad.fr

Ask HN: Hackable Personal Database?
I'm looking for the same. Open source, self hosted, and end-to-end encrypted.
I haven't found anything that really does all of this, but it seems like Cryptpad[0] and Peergos[1] are viable platforms upon which something like this could be built.
Except for encryption, Atomic Data[2] seems like a really cool platform to build this on.

Proton launches its own version of Google Docs
I see that they claim all of their apps and libraries are open source[0]. But they only link to the OpenPGP libraries they're using. Is this actually open source? Following the "Open Source" footer link[1], here they only link to the ProtonMail Github account with nothing mentioning ProtonDrive.
And if it is actually open source, I'd love to see a comparison to CryptPad[2]
> which is why we’ve made all our apps and encryption libraries open source

Edit This Blog Post
I work for XWiki SAS. Two products we develop have it:
- XWiki, a extensible wiki platform, experimentally [1] but soon to be fully supported
- CryptPad [2], an end-to-end encrypted collaborative platform. And actually, CryptPad was accidentally born as a first attempt to have this feature in XWiki.

Google Docs adds tracking to links in document exports
Hey, very happy to see you so enthusiastic!
I'll be sure to transmit your feedback to the CryptPad team.
I'm not an expert myself so while I might know some stuff, it'd be better to talk to them directly.
Come say hello on the Matrix #cryptpad-general channel [1], don't hesitate to open issues on the bug tracker, and to browse the CryptPad's website [2].
