They’re in their 60’s, finally convinced them.

They say things like “This is the same…”

and I’m like

“Ya because that’s Firefox, the only program you use…”

“What was Windows even doing for us?”

    Onlyoffice is a near clone of MS office though, so there’s basically no friction in adopting it unless you’re heavily into advanced Excel features.

      From my experience, OnlyOffice provides better compatability with MS Office-files (that is, more so than LibreOffice). However, having used Powerpoint quite a lot in my professional life, and using OnlyOffice Presentation to make a slide deck now, that is an area where I unfortunately find it severely lacking. There’s also the issue about their license - I am not all that familiar with it, but apparently they are not as free and open as they claim to be.

        What ever happened to Open Office? That used to be the defacto replacement to Microsoft Office. I haven’t used office tools on a personal computer in over a decade though, so I’m very out of the loop there.

          LibreOffice is as far as I know a continuation of OpenOffice.

            Thanks. Can that still be installed on Windows systems?

          For historical info - Oracle bought OpenOffice and started to close it down, so all the developers that worked on it forked it into LibreOffice

          Oracle has since given OpenOffice to an open source group, Apache, but the main development still happens on LibreOffice
