In another post discussion, someone suggested git as an alternative to overleaf, a Google Docs for latex... I guess there are plenty of people with blind spots for things that are technically possible, and usabel to experts, and UI that actually empowers much broader classes of users to wield the feature.
If you actually use the live collaboration features of overleaf, sure, it’s not a replacement. But lots of people use overleaf to write latex by themselves. The experience is just so much worse than developing locally and tracking changes with git.
