I’m writing a book and my editor needs to be able to alter/comment on the document as we go. I’m afraid AI is gonna use my work so I wanna move away from Google.

    I see many great suggestions here so I am only gonna add one thing to them: consider self hosting if you care about privacy and owning your own work. Something like nextcloud has all of the features of google drive/docs built in and much more and these days really isn’t that hard to expensive to setup.

        Self hosting is a fun hobby. I set Nextcloud up for myself and love it! If you’re just getting in, I would look at a “NUC”-like mini pc to run services on. They are a bit more expensive, but you get better performance.
