Ask HN: MacOS open source word processor-- what are you using in 2018?
- piocho 8y agoIt depends on what you want to achieve. Taking simple notes => MacDown, as iDemonix said. Complex documents (long reports, mathematics notes, ...) => LaTeX. (TexMaker for example). It is totally worth it to spend 1 or 2 days struggling with LaTeX.
- guitarbill 8y agoHonestly? LaTeX. Does that count? It does presentations, too. Does it have to be open source? Because LibreOffice is a mess, especially on macOS. Apparently, something called NeoOffice is LibreOffice for macOS, and while sold commercially, is GPL.
- towndrunk 8y agoWhy not Pages?
- snazz 8y agoIt says “open source” in the title, but I’m not sure if the OP might make an exception for Pages since it comes with macOS and macOS itself isn’t free software.
