Onlyoffice is Russian? I started looking into this week because of this euro office thing. This is first time I had a chance to see why. . the other reasons aremore vslid. Seems like only office is not very transparent.
Libreoffice is the way to go for desktops. They’re in Germany.
Yep I’m pretty stoked we’ll soon have Euro Office
That’s how i feel. I live in the US and “Made in Europe” has a lot of pull for me.
I’m not surprised by that at all. I used to use it, but found it strange how closed-source it felt, and how it’s almost a carbon copy of microslop office, in it’s interface, the latter being the main reason I started using it.
If you ever want to try LibreOffice, try using the “tabbed” interface by going to the “user interface” option, then it will look more similar to that! If possible, I would recommend using ODF over MS doc formats (ODT, ODP, ODS vs DOCX, PPT, XLSX). MS Office opens them fine for the most part (aside from specifically PowerPoint on web, it renders reduced opacity images weird! Everything else seems fine though) and the document format isn’t proprietary. Bonus points that it makes it easy to differentiate files (odt is open doc text, odp is open doc presentation, ods is open doc spreadsheets! MS office extensions aren’t standardised at all), downside is you have to try hard not to call presentations “ppts”
I like Microsoft office… The app itself. So I was looking for something similar with more freedom. But I 100% need something that will work with MS office formats because the rest of the business world around me uses ms office
