Has it been made at least as fast as office by now, or is it still slower at basically everything? Because the reason I gave up on it every time I tried it in the past is that sluggish tools turn what should be a "doing a thing" into a grind. Fine, if annoying, for incidental work, but impossible to not get angry with once it's a daily driver.
- mixmastamyk 7y agoWhat are you doing in office apps where speed is an issue?
- nulbyte 7y agoNot OP, but speed is an issue for me on a daily basis doing basic things. I am a keyboard junky, and find myself at times five steps ahead of the UI, even running Microsoft Office on Microsoft Windows. From the keyboard, I can make a table, align general, turn off wrapping, delete the last row, insert a column, give it a heading, and format it as text. The UI is usually halfway done while I'm sitting waiting. Delay is jarring when I pay attention to it.
- mixmastamyk 7y agoDo you have an SSD and a semi-recent machine? If so, this is an argument for LO. I use it on a three year old laptop on Linux. It is relatively snappy.
- emsign 7y agoEven using the program with a blank document feels sluggish in Windows 10, I'm sorry. Opening the text formatting window takes a few seconds on a one page document (maybe I have too many fonts installed??). There's something seriously wrong with that software.
- mixmastamyk 7y agoSounds like an argument for LO and removing all the startup programs, disabling extra services, SSD etc.
