Arrgghhhh using Word to edit a file that's in a OneDrive folder is now virtually unusable. It occasionally just randomly selects a section of text and declares it conflicts with another version, or worse makes an entire paragraph you've written disappear with no way to get it back.

@neuralreckoning hahah yeah I have seen it do that a lot. It doesn't seem new though. Unfortunately I think google documents is still the best way to collaborate on documents (but would be happy to be proven wrong, provided the alternative is as easy to use..)

@elduvelle @neuralreckoning Of you're a bit more adventurous there's also Overleaf.

@nicolaromano That works with LateX right?
Can you do comments and suggestions (tracked changes) in Overleaf?

@neuralreckoning

@elduvelle @nicolaromano yes and yes. It's owned by one of the big academic publishers though.
