We use excalidraw within our team at work. It's amazingly easy to produce diagrams to share business logic around. I might recommend this.

My biggest pain is that we need to manage and share the drawings ourselves. I normally share a screenshot and I have a collection of .excalidraw files saved locally

Draw.io [1] (now diagrams.net I guess?) lets you export a .png file with the diagram embedded in the image. So you don't need to keep the original file, and even an old image from a wiki can be opened up and edited by anybody on the team without having to get the "diagram file" from the original author.

Granted, I don't think it does collaboration so that may be a dealbreaker for you

Perhaps a collection of links? If you click the link icon in export.

But yes, this sounds like what the paid feature will try and solve.
