out of curiosity, why do you use an open source office product when a variety of free & high quality web based document editors exist? I chafe when I need to use the microsoft office suite at this point, and premium editors look more like grammarly than word.
In the corporate/business use case there are both open source and cheap licensed/self-hosted versions of web based editors.

- toast0 6y agoI prefer a local spreadsheet over a browser spreadsheet, because the browser spreadsheets don't always update all the dependent cells consistently. Sometimes, they need to send something back and forth to a server and that's slow and irritating. Resizing columns seems better in a local app than in a browser too, but I'm not totally sure about that. I don't really use a word processor or other parts of an office suite very often.
