@fistfulofdave 😂 does have a Microsoft-y feel now, yeah. And same, I've used it since OpenOffice. But it's such bs that Microsoft wants to charge for Office now, this laptop I've used for 5+ years that I paid for this version of Windows 10 then that was installed on it - no way am I paying Microsoft for Word or Excel. And LibreOffice is so similar, I don't need it for crazy complex things on my personal laptop. Just basic word processing and spreadsheet stuff. So it's nice. But yeah, the UI is very reminiscent hahaha

I won a contest @libreoffice held, and I got all this KILLER LibreOffice swag from them.

I've used LibreOffice for so many years, from back in the mid 2000s when it was OpenOffice. It's better than Microsoft Office. It's totally free and open source, and you don't have to be logged in like you do now with Office.

Try it out if you haven't, you won't regret it.
