    I find it does the job, however I barely use office programs to begin with.

      I’d also prefer to use LibreOffice, but I use SharePoint, PowerAutomate and connect to DataBricks on Azure for example. There are just so many things LibreOffice can’t do (not the devs fault). I think people are not aware of the current features of Microsoft Office and wind up comparing LibreOffice in 2023 to Microsoft Office 2003.

      I think that might be our difference. I use office programs all of the time. I dislike several things about office, formatting is tedious and difficult, combining multiple files isn’t the best, features that used to exist get rolled back and are more difficult to use to name a few. There are programs that do single aspects of office a whole lot better, like LaTeX, but they don’t really replace office.

      I’d like to break free from MS, but unless something really innovative comes out I don’t see it being better for me.
