Maybe libreoffice needs a more strict word online compatibility mode that compromises UI and functionality for as perfect as possible compatibility.
For instance a user in the thread mentioned all background colors can be applied in libreoffice, but in word online some are restricted.
Ux having those restricted colors grayed out by default with a hover note why seems perfect to keep compatibility and show where word online is wonky.
Hope this makes sense, will have to pay or in a better format to the issue tracker tomorrow.
- thiht 6y agoLibre Office is already bloated to the point of being unusable imo. If some features are not available in a given context, they just should not be shown, instead of trying to show off how it's superior. Less is more.
- stOneskull 6y agoi think the bloatedness has improved in the last year. start-up times and responsiveness are much better
- codygman 6y agoIf the UX isn't done well I agree. However there a great opportunity for pushing for compatibility and a more portable document format in a less annoying way than gimp does for xcf.
