    I don’t understand what people are using office for that libre can’t do. Are we not just putting words on paper?

      It’s probably advanced Excel users, mostly. Also, people who heavily use the collaboration features of MS Office.

        Collaborative features makes sense. But if I am ever needing ‘advanced’ excel, I am not going to be using excel.

      I use Excel for a lot of advanced things, but even their word processor is garbage. I tried to use it to take notes for DnD but things like bullet points wouldn’t work correctly, spacing got all messed up, etc. Just a ton of small shit. I eventually just switched back to the web version of Microsoft Office.

      I absolutely love Linux, but some things Microsoft does better, and Office is one of them.
