Thank you for sharing this, Ray!
It formats the writing screen and text reflow to a mobile size the same way docs does. I've only tested it in chrome so far myself.
You do need to manually save your docs specifically as markdown format, and then import, but you can I think import multiple at a time now which is nice!
Gdocs is grumpy so you need to actually open each doc to save as MKD :(
Can you choose different font colors?
A friend and I write an RP together and have been doing so for 8yrs. I'd hate to see it end because of G-Docs new rules.
Thanks.
I do know that that G-Docs is using their AI, and it's now on every document, so it can "help" you.

I personally no longer want to take the risk.

Is there a way to make sure only a few people can see the document(s)?

Go give them a follow if you like what you've seen here!
You can create and merge multiple forked drafts.
They have lots of features still coming.
