One of the things that we still find hard to replace when working in hybrid collaborative research workshop settings is key collaborative work environments such as GoogleDocs and Zoom, which are commercial, prorietary and often paid for tools/platforms. Within the Copim community and with the Experimental Publishing Group we have been experimenting with open source alternatives. For example we have been using different kinds of pads to write collaboratively such as Cryptpad (https://cryptpad.fr/) and Etherpad (https://etherpad.org/) or online conferencing platforms such as Kmeet (https://kmeet.infomaniak.com/).
