FYI - the main Call to Action button on the homepage, "Start Learning" linking to /docs, gives a 404 error. On the other hand, the menu items "AI 101", "Chat GPT" work fine to navigate to the content.
I'm still insisting on using redmine at our Drupal shop after 15 years instead of switching to Jira (fight me!). We also tried using trac back in 2007 but realized we needed multi project. Every few months/years I keep looking for a more modern alternative (open source or extensible SaaS) but never find anything worth trying beyond adding a few "test" issues. (So far: Jira, Clickup, Linear, Monday, Asana)
We even taught several of our devs Ruby on Rails over the years to write various plugins. One of them quit to go try and work at Shopify, no less!
In the spirit of making my comments useful, here are the custom redmine plugins we built and maintain for ourselves:
https://github.com/evolvingweb/redmine_atjs
Redmine plugin that integrates At.js library to enable auto-completion based on issue titles, while editing wiki and issue pages.
https://github.com/evolvingweb/redmine_evolvingweb_extension... - bunch of random UX hacks we can’t live without. Some aren’t documented in the readme, including ability to search archived projects, and adding extra fields to redmine timesheet reports like Custom Fields on users.
https://github.com/evolvingweb/redmine_paste_text/ - integrates puppypaste.com functionality into Textile “wysiwyg” editor, allowing pasting HTML content (eg from emails) that gets automatically convert to textile
https://github.com/evolvingweb/redmine_easy_edit - allowing CMD/Ctrl + double clicking on rendered text (wiki body, issue comments, or issue description) to jump to edit page and scroll to source textile
There are two great ones in downtown Montreal, apparently owned by some cool Russian people. https://www.anticafe.org/
They are often the place of Russian language and culture events, which is how I heard of them.
I love the concept, but personally having to sign in to track time seems less "streamlined" to me than just buying a drink, so I didn't have a reason to go back, but maybe if the first hour was free in exchange for installing an app, it would be worth it. (I also don't hang out in cafes or coworking spaces much these days).
Good initiative! I use Google Drive many times a day and share your frustrations.
At some point I was frustrated enough to research some of the promising "workarounds" for their primitive and clunky document browsing/search UI, and typed them up as comments in this LinkedIn post:

Many years ago, I created BabelFrog, a chrome extension to to instantly displaying the translation for any highlighted text. Unlike other similar extensions, I don't have access to your pages until it's activated, slowing down your browsing or risk your privacy.
It's activated with a keyboard shortcut: Cmd-E or Ctrl-E.
