    I love LibreOffice. Often when it’s mentioned I’ve seen people with the opposite sentiment, but it never caused me any trouble and I really enjoy the small tabs option for the interface.

    Microsoft Office has once decided to take my locally created file, shove it somewhere in OneDrive, then revert it to the state it was 24 hours prior - I couldn’t recover the newer version. Guess which software never deleted my files? LibreOffice.

    Libre office or open office, what do you guys think? I’ve used both from time to time.

      OnlyOffice is the main alternative to Libre these days.

      I personally prefer it because offers better compatibility with the Microsoft 365 documents I need for work.

        It saddens me that the best to have compatibility is to never touch MS Office. They are the largest player by far. Subtly fucking up or deviating from open document standards will always be seen as “well, the issue is non MS office”.

    Did LO discontinue distribution via torrent?

    Edit: torrents are now up. Does it always take a day?
