That they're not keeping up with LibreOffice
Who cares about "keeping up with LibreOffice?" The idea that this is a competition is an idea that seems to only be constantly promulgated by the LO camp.
AOO exists and releases on the pace that they can. If that isn't sufficient for some people, those people are welcome to jump to LO. For people who are happy with AOO, so be it. How about a little more "live and let live" here people, instead of the LO camp always trying to bully AOO out of existence just so they can declare final and complete victory? Maybe they'd like to drink the blood of the AOO developers out of their skulls as well just to emphasize the point?
- macksd 4y agoI literally said "X is not really a concern" and you come back with "Who cares about X?" and something about drinking the blood out of skulls? Whoa. Slow down a sec. I don't see anyone rooting for AOO to die. The only reason I see here for people to care about keeping up with LibreOffice see that AOO got a much better known brand and clearly haven't done as much with it, causing people to try out an open-source office suite and have a subpar experience with FOSS.
- mindcrime 4y agoI was just using what you said as a "conversation prompt". My post wasn't really a reply to you per-se. I'm talking about something more abstract, and about the people out there who do treat "keeping up with LibreOffice" as some kind of big deal. Apologies for the confusion.
- macksd 4y agoI see - my bad. Ignore the first paragraph, then. Second half still applies I think :D
- int_19h 4y agoThe problem is that the users are going to AOO for historical reason (brand recognition, basically), and getting a drastically outdated product.
