There is a Free Software (AGPL3.0) alternative to Google Docs called
HedgeDoc. We have used it a little bit (within Armbian project) and I
think it's pretty neat! [0]

Of course it does not do everything that Google Docs does. But for
common use-case of simple documents, it works quite well for
collaboration.
Unfortunately, HedgeDoc does not support Org Mode markdown, either. But
at least, in this case, thanks to F/LOSS, the possibility exists (at
least in theory) to add it.

[0] Even though I personally prefer Org over MD by quite a huge margin,
MD is what the Armbian project uses, so, 'when in Rome...'
