OnlyOffice appears to have removed their Android app from their repos: https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/documents-app-android
It can still be found on an archive: https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/origin/directory/?origin_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FONLYOFFICE%2Fdocuments-app-android
This means if you are de-Googled like me, they are no longer an option.
Perhaps coincidentally, they have also started making legal claims against the EuroOffice fork: https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE#️-legal-note
Am I understanding this correctly that you can’t remove the logo, but you also aren’t allowed to use it as it’s their trademark? So creating a legal fork is essentially impossible?
Section 10 of the AGPL covers these shenanigans.
It’s argued that these additional clauses restrict who can create a fork of the code and thereby activates section 10.
This. They wanted to libre-wash their software. But by using the AGPL, they have essentially sabotaged themselves successfully, to our benefit.
It was the other way around. They added the clauses after they used AGPL. So they commercial washed their libre software.
I meant originally. They never wanted to be truly committed to FOSS. The binary blobs everywhere tell the whole story.
Perhaps, but:

For now, Nextcloud and IONOS seem to think these claims aren’t valid.
Unfortunately they don’t have an Android fork.
That’s brilliant. They have found a way to lock in free software. It’s good that they have shown their cards now before Europe has moved to them for being an open source alternative.

I think due to section 10 (see other comments) they havent actually found a way, and that’s why Nextcloud and IONOS continue to move forward.
I would assume you can do something like
RandomOfficeSuite; powered by [Open office logo]
I don’t think they’ll need to because of Section 10 (see other comments)
