Is there a quick way to save my Google docs files to .docx all at once? I’ll do them one at a time if I must, but there’s got to be a quick way.

kaveinthran, to accessibility

how you move to next elements, e.g. headings, comments, footnote in a google doc? here goes! ctrl+alt+n, ctrl+alt+c for next comment, except when you press ctrl+alt+n, nvda starts/quits,
so what's the alternative?

Is there a equivalent to ? Specifically spreadsheets

We keep a fairly basic spreadsheet for our future

Google Sheets isn't causing any problems YET but, I'm challenging myself to self-host as much as I can. I already killed Linktree, that was easy.

One of my problems with #GoogleDocs is that it will block access if it thinks your browser is incompatible.
As a user of UserAgent obfuscators this is really annoying when someone wants to share a Doc with me.
#Nexcloud (with the #OnlyOffice plugin) does it exactly right, by warning me that I might encounter problems, but it is still up to me to decide if I want to accept the possible complications.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

oh, not a joke 😳 ?

et donc ouais, quand on veut stocker ses infos de profil facebook dans un truc comme google doc, le transfert refuse de fonctionner si on n'autorise "que les fichiers qui viennent de facebook". Il faut EN PLUS cocher la case obligatoire "TOUS les fichiers google docs" que Meta a ainsi le droit de modifier, éditer, supprimer etc.

nuicemedia, to indonesia

Indonesia’s Communications Ministry added Google Docs to its list of banned websites for several hours before removing it this morning.

The entire Docs suite became inaccessible during the time it was banned but seems to have returned to normal now. Database search on the block list now returns no result for the Google Docs domain.

https://x.com/irfan3/status/1704919765326917752

nuicemedia,

Deputy Communications Minister Nezar Patria denied the Ministry blocked the Google Docs URL despite evidence and inability to access the service since last night. He seems to insinuate a rogue staff or a mistake in the URL’s addition to the blocklist.

Docs remain inaccessible to a number of users in Indonesia, but should be cleared for most by now.

One of the best things to ever happen to Google Docs are Pageless Documents.

I wanted this feature for so long. It's been around for a while now, but I'm still thankful for this feature every time I open a new Google Doc.

Hier ist ein Totalausfall der Microsoft-Sicherheit beschrieben, ausgenutzt durch russische Hacker. Auch NGOs sollen angegriffen worden sein. Da könnte man ja eigentlich vorschlagen, die Datenkraken zu löschen und gut?

Nicht ganz. Wer sich mal einen Eindruck verschaffen will, in welchem Zustand Windows inzwischen ist: Seit Windows 11 werden Nutzer zu einem 365-Konto genötigt. Der Sinnlos-Browser Microsoft Edge lässt sich selbst mit Aufwand nicht mehr deinstallieren.

Mich bezahlt keine*r dafür dass ich mich vorsätzlich - weil wissentlich - strafbar mache!

Denn nichts anderes ist #GoogleDocs wie #Office365:
#DSGVO- & #BDSG-Inkompatibel by design, denn selbst wenn #Microsoft das #Microsoft365-Deutschland Angebot nicht eingestampft hätte, wäre es unter #CloudAct fallend und damit so inkompatibel zum #Datenschutz wie Proprietäre & patentbehaftete Treiber zu #GPLv3 & #AGPLv3!

But an override also provides serious benefits: it rules out the monopolistic abuse of a TPM to force users to run malicious code that the manufacturer insisted on - code that prevented the user from doing things that benefited the user, even if it harmed the manufacturer's shareholders. For example, with owner override, Microsoft couldn't force you to use its official MS Office programs rather than third-party compatible programs like #iwork #GoogleDocs or #LibreOffice.

Did you know that you can use voice typing in Google Docs to create amazing content without typing a single word? 🗣️

Voice typing is an excellent feature that allows you to dictate your thoughts and ideas to Google Docs, and it automatically transcribes them for you. It's perfect for people who have difficulty typing, want to save time, or just prefer to speak rather than type. 🙌

You just need a microphone, a Google account, and a browser. You can also edit and format your document with voice commands, such as "bold that" or "insert bullet list". 🚀

Voice typing is not only a convenient tool, but also an accessible one. It can help people with disabilities, injuries, or other limitations to express themselves and create content. 🌎

What do you think about voice typing in Google Docs? Have you tried it before? Do you have any questions or feedback for me? Let me know below. I'd love to hear from you. 💬
