I don't get folks who complain about libre office at this point. I feel its better but just the microsoft shenanigans with implementation of doc types that messes things up. I don't care. Save as xls and its up to the office person to see it right. If they complain I say it shows fine on mine and send them the pdf formatted correctly.
I just copied and pasted the github thing to unlock pro and office suite, seems easy enough, idk why I never did that throughout college, just never needed msoffice past the year I needed excel and I had it free then, only grabbed it now just to have it

Just use LibreOffice. It's basically on par with what Office was 5 years ago. The average person won't even notice a difference.

The average person uses Google docs for free (well, at the price of selling their data).
And Microsoft is trying to compete with that with this offering.
I think NextCloud is the best competitor and they also have LibreOffice in the cloud.

Absolutely insane. It's become so clear to me that I need to divorce all of these giant tech companies and move to self hosted solutions.
