Git is git for documents
Just use LaTeX.
But idk if that would be of any use if every commit message is "new draft" :D
I really want to learn to use LaTeX
You don't. I don't know how to get you to trust me, but you don't.
There's no alternative. You have to learn latex if you want good results (or markdown).
Yes, but those things aren't mutually exclusive.
What's the alternative? Word is certainly not the answer.
When I say "those things aren't mutually exclusive", it means "it can both be true that you don't want to learn Latex and that there are no viable sane alternatives to it".
Which sort of makes your question silly.
I misunderstood you there
Markdown is an easier "alternative" to latex. If someone provides you a layout and you're happy with it, there's no need to learn latex. There's no easier way in writing slides than in markdown.
If you're using MS Office, just don't. Use Libre Office instead.
It's always a struggle to get coworkers to use OneDrive's version control for documents at work. Built in, you don't have to do anything, and there's still fifteen copies of the same document floating around.
