Kjue··on I gave every train in New York an instrument
First beats I heard from it reminded me of Transport Tycoon Deluxe. What a legend of an experience, thank you!
Kjue··on Lies I was told about collaborative editing, Part 2: Why we don't use Yjs
Am I correctly understanding that you (Moment) have chosen to use Prosemirror and that with that using Yjs was the hard part? Or did you mean to say in the article that you used Yjs directly? It would be less prone to misunderstanding if it read "why we don't use y-prosemirror" and you would lose a lot of potential audience for the post.

I tried to understand what was wrong in Yjs, as I'm using it myself, but your point is not really with Yjs it seems but on how the interaction is with Prosemirror in your use case. I can see why you're bringing up your points against Yjs and I'm having a hard time understanding why you don't consider alternatives to Prosemirror directly. Put another way, "because this integration was bad the source system must also be bad". I do not condone this part of your article. Seems like a sunken cost fallacy to me and reasoning about it at anothers expense, but perhaps not. Hoping to hear back from you.
