Thanks @iAnonymous3000. I'm just not sure about the Office Suite part because it doesn't really make sense - Fileverse is there in the Drive category, Proton is not in Office Suite, Google Docs is there but not Google Sheets, etc. There's an open issue to discuss how to go about this. For now, could you remove this section, and also add the images for the new applications you've added in other sections (instructions are there in the readme).

I disagree with the Office Suite feedback.

"it doesn't really make sense" - What doesn't make sense? Users need alternatives to Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. That's what this category provides.

"Proton is not in Office Suite" - Proton Docs launched July 2024 with E2EE collaborative editing. It competes directly with Google Docs. If Google Docs is mainstream, Proton Docs is the private alternative.

"Fileverse is there in the Drive category" - Fileverse does collaborative document editing. It belongs in both. CryptPad is already in multiple categories. This is consistent with existing privacypack structure.

"Google Docs is there but not Google Sheets" - Correct. I'll add Sheets with LibreOffice Calc and OnlyOffice Spreadsheet.

If Google Docs is mainstream, Proton Docs is the private alternative.

Yes, that's what I meant by Proton is not there. Google Docs is there but Proton isn't in your changes.

I''ll add Sheets with LibreOffice Calc and OnlyOffice Spreadsheet.

What if someone wants to show both Docs and Sheets which is very likely to happen?

That's what I meant by not sure about the structure. Should we show Docs separate, Sheets separate, "Office suite" has presentations but Proton doesn't have, what about the overlap of "Office suite" and "Drive".
