Airborn

Their interface is available in Esperanto. That's already a huge point for me.

If you select an RTL interface language, the UI becomes RTL. And in Chrome, you can select RTL in the editor in the context menu. Are you looking for something similar to that in…

Looks really slick! You should consider adding word support. Support for office XML formats[1] are simple enough to hand-roll.…

This app is making me ride the nostalgia train (circa 2005?) when AJAX was hot shit and everyone was making cloud OS. It has all the same elements: * window manager * apps *…

"We (the makers of Airborn OS) won't be able to read them even if we wanted to." I take such claims with a huge grain of salt on the web. YOU serve the Javascript. YOU can change…

The very premises that a hacker can't read my data is laughable. Unless I'm using a native app to do the decryption a hacker could gain access to my data as it leaves your server…

This looks great! Minor nits: In what way is this an OS? Also in the US, Airborn (e.g. to be in the air) is spelled "Airborne" and it's difficult to type it without the trailing…

Why does it have OS in the name? Is it an operating system? (This is a question I cannot find a direct answer to on their site) Their site makes it incredibly difficult to…

It breaks the back button (stuck in a reloading loop). That alone is enough to make me move on, regardless of the potential privacy benefits.

Yeah, it does that in Firefox, sorry about that. It works in Chrome.

I can't register. Getting "there was an error" message.

Could you try again? It might be just the server erroring out under load. Also, only Chrome, Firefox and Safari are supported.

One killer feature I am looking for is numbered headers/styles. Something Google Docs still lacks and I need Word for.

Looks really slick! You should consider adding word support. Support for office XML formats[1] are simple enough to hand-roll.…

What extent of docx support is important, do you feel? Is just importing docx to html (the native format) sufficient, or should they stay as docx while editing? Should it be…

Can this be self-hosted?

I see there's source, but don't see instructions for deploying.

To solve this, [...use Service Workers] to install some code which can't be changed without setting off a warning to you. How does that work? Isn't a service worker started by…

> For example, that first visit which installs the service worker can already deliver bad code. Yes, but that is also the case when you install a desktop app. That's why Airborn…

Good timing with Google incorrectly flagging some Docs as abusive? (https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/zmz3yw/why-is-my-google-doc-locked-terms-of-service-bug)

I see. What are you missing in Collabora? There's also OnlyOffice for Nextcloud, which is quite a feature-complete editor, I think: https://api.onlyoffice.com/editors/owncloud

Yeah. While possible, Airborn OS isn't really meant to deploy yourself. If you want that, you might be better off with nextCloud or similar. Airborn OS was built to have a…
