Are there good Microsoft word alternatives that support Linux (I don’t mind closed source)? Libreoffice is meh and only office is quite good, but are there any better ones? Also, is there a way to install word on Linux using wine? When I do that my laptop just overheats and loses internet connection.

    Really trying to understand what “meh” means in terms of office software.

    They all are kinda meh. I dont get overly excited with office stuff do you?

    Over the years I have used both Libre and ms office. Some use cases were so much better with Libre. Now days it’s kind of a wash really. You write words or you calculate cells. If you are calculating any large amount of cells do your self a favor and get it into a database.

    And if it’s a presentation, reveal.js is miles better than PowerPoint.
