There is a libreoffice docker image by linuxserver for self hosting/google docs replacement

Hey, all the bug fixes in the world is great, but honestly? Just give me a proper dark mode. That's genuinely all I want at the moment. MS Office has had proper dark mode for years.
And yes I say proper dark mode because although it has dark mode it is absolute shit. The "paper" is still blazing white; meanwhile, in MS Office it is a pleasant grey so you can still differentiate it from the background while maintaining the dark mode as a dark mode.
Edit: Evidently, I was wrong. It does support it. Clearly I either was doing it wrong and/or was misunderstanding it. Sorry for the falsehood!
- Oh shit seriously. Clearly I either did it wrong or misunderstood. Whoops! Thanks for enlightening me!

  Clearly I misunderstood. Sorry!
- EDIT: So, apparently it does have a proper dark mode that I didn't know about. My apologies. ~~Oooof, we can only dream. That sunny white paper blinding you in the dark mode is a major turn off. I still use it, though. I appreciate the rest of the suit for sure.~~

Can you self host libreoffice for a google docs alternative?
- Yes. Collabora is the maintainer for the online version (as well as the Android). Easiest way to host is via nextcloud.
- No, Libre Office is offline only.
  You need to look at something like Only Office, a free/open source web based office suite, which supports collaboration.

  I stand corrected, there is a web-version of libre office, although they don't support it directly, they do provide builds etc.

  Is the one on nextcloud also onlyoffice?
- I have been looking into cryptpad, but I don't know if it is really secure/private, but it appears to be a privacy-oriented, self-host able google doc alternative: https://cryptpad.org
- please see this comment above

Did they fix the page numbers not being properly right aligned in ToC?
