Hi everyone! 👋 We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OpenOffice#Security – So if you see someone recommending it, please inform them about the risks – but also that there are actively maintained successor projects (like LibreOffice). #foss #OpenSource

    If only LibreOffice’s user interface weren’t so outdated, I would definitely use it instead of OnlyOffice.

      Outdated on Windows? Because on Linux, the LibreOffice UI is great, imo.

        I think it’s plenty functional, but it looks dated and less flashy. I don’t mind that myself, but it does put some people off

      It has a nice ribbon UI like MS Office! Unfortunately it is super hidden as you first need to enable experimental settings before you can switch it on.

      Only office is basically the same interface again, all cloning MS-office 2007-2010.

      Bleach.
