yes, like your quote says, you have to invite other users. you have to explicitly add every user's email in order to let them edit it, you can't just create a link and send it to people.

looks like there's no way to allow edits for everyone with the link, they can only view the document that way. guess it's Google Docs for me for the foreseeable future :(

also, it doesn't seem to support previewing .odt, while .docx works fine.

Experts aren’t unanimous about whether the AI-powered search startup’s practices could expose it to legal claims ranging from infringement to defamation—but some say plaintiffs would have strong cases.

Chat control vote postponed: Huge success in defense of digital privacy of correspondence! (www.patrick-breyer.de)

Today EU governments will not adopt their position on the EU regulation on “combating child sexual abuse”, the so-called chat control regulation, as planned, which would have heralded the end of private messages and secure encryption. The Belgian Council presidency postponed the vote at short notice. Once again the chat control proposal fails in Council.

Linux user share on Steam breaks 2% thanks to Steam Deck (www.gamingonlinux.com)

A moment I've no doubt many Linux fans have been waiting to see. The Linux user share on Steam has smashed through the 2% barrier.

Not actually for the first time though, it did initially rise up above 2% in March 2013, shortly after the original Steam for Linux release when it left Beta. Part of the reason it had higher numbers at the start, was that Valve added a special Tux item into Team Fortress 2 only on Linux but it quickly dropped in the following months.

Reddit introduces a new ad format that looks similar to posts made by users | TechCrunch by noodlejetski in c/technology@lemmy.world
[-] noodlejetski@lemm.ee 161 points 3 months ago

In early testing of the new format, Reddit found that free-form ads outperform all other ad types in average click through rate (CTR) by 28%, along with increased community engagement when comments are enabled

so they're bragging how much more misleading the new format is, gotcha.

something's telling me it's the countries that make being able to opt out of profiling a legal requirement. praise be GDPR.
