When I installed this on macOS 10.13, it wouldn't run at all. Crashed on every document it tried to open, including a new document based on the default template, and then got stuck in a recovery loop. I had to force-quit it. After deleting ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice it seems to be fine. So there must be an issue installing with old preferences in place.
