    Why Microsoft office? Who not just “office”? Libre Office is the same

      It’s not the same and I wish people would stop pretending that it is. Does it do what most people need it to do though? Yeah, probably.

      The key is being able to share those files with windows users who are definitely on Microsoft office

          The problem is that M$ likes to ensure that their stuff saved as docx won’t render properly when opened on libreoffice. Fonts, headers, position of tables, many things can look out of place because fuck you for not using MSOffice

            “Fonts” can be fixed by snagging the fonts folder from a windows install (or sometimes slsk depending who is online) and putting it in /usr/share/fonts. The rest though, yeah.
