It should be easy to add Notion-like collaborative text editing. This is why we've just released first-party support for BlockNote, enabling: • Fully-hosted collaborative block-based editing • Real-time comments and notifications • Offline support, multiple editors, and more
Awesome collab (😜) with @liveblocks.io. Make your www.blocknotejs.org editor collaborative with just a few lines of code!
Introducing… Liveblocks BlockNote. Get started with block-based collaborative editing in minutes. Our new first-party plugin for BlockNote has built-in commenting, notifications, mentions, and offline support. We've also built a Notion-style demo in our starter kit. → lblcks.io/EWcuhKq
"Dutch parliament calls for end to dependence on US software companies": www.reuters.com/world/europe.... It's been an honor to work with 🇩🇪 and 🇫🇷 on this, but even better to see digital autonomy taken seriously in my home country. www.reuters.com/world/europe...
Dutch parliament calls for end to reliance on US software
The Netherlands' parliament on Tuesday approved a series of motions calling on the government to reduce dependence on U.S. software companies, including by creating a cloud services platform that is under Dutch control.

This is absurdly great, but I haven't read a single news article about it. A fully open source, offline-first alternative to Notion that's a collab between the French and German governments because they want to host docs securely and on their own terms. THIS is what Europe should be doing.

🚀 #1 on Hacker News! 🚀 The open source and collaborative document editor we're building with the French and German governments just hit the top of HN. Proud to be part of this with BlockNote (www.blocknotejs.org)!
Excited to share @nickthesick.com is now working on BlockNote (www.blocknotejs.org) with us as lead engineer! Feels great to get a team together around our open source product, and Nick brings a lot of experience working on rich text editors 💖
Excited to announce that I'm leaving Tiptap, I will be joining BlockNote at the beginning of the month. It's been less than a year, but I'm in a good place to take some risk and try starting up a company. Given that I'm leaving, I thought it'd fun to share the things I built while at Tiptap. So 🧵
On our way to @fosdem.bsky.social. Will be giving a talk on how we're collaborating @ BlockNotejs.org with EU governments to build a sovereign digital workplace: fosdem.org/2025/schedul.... Who else is going?

Think gov tech is boring? Working on Open Source solutions for Digital Autonomy for your own country is pretty exciting 🙌 Back from Berlin where the CIOs of 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇳🇱 decided to keep working together on tech sovereignty through open source software.

Insider story on Tech Platform Lock-in and what happens when user data is controlled by a single company. Should ring a bell for BlueSky enthusiasts! 8 years ago I cofounded an app for cyclists / runners / hikers that quickly turned into the single largest 3rd party app on the Strava API... 🧵
