"textContent": "Docs (GitHub) is an open source alternative to Notion/Google Docs being built by the French and German governments (with the Netherlands being onboarded). This is exactly the sort of work I like to see coming out of governments.\r\n\r\nCrucially, this application can be self-hosted. Given our current political landscape, digital sovereignty is going to become significantly more important. What I like about this, however, is the recognition that investment into infrastructure that can provide for tangible benefits for government can also become a common good.\r\n\r\nIn Canada, we have a collection of government projects available as open source. Celebrating and discussing the value from these projects is something our societies should do more.",
