I use Office via the web and it suits 99% of my cases.
I think the only issues have been some formatting options are hidden, I honestly don't remember them because it mostly works.
It was more a cheap jab that they don't want to actually support Linux.
- vladvasiliu 4y agoI think that with the move to the web and web app everything, there are fewer and fewer reasons for people to use Windows as a client OS outside of specialty software. Hell, my last two HP laptops, nothing fancy, had worse hardware support on Windows than on Linux (where they were working 100% since day one), even with all the HP drivers installed. Took them about a year to fix this. So even "don't need to futz around with drivers" is no longer a reason. And I think MS realizes this, seeing that recent .net things work on Linux, MSSQL Server now works on Linux (but not the studio, though). So, I guess they're just trying their damnedest to stay at least somewhat relevant. Companies are usually a bit slower to change user-facing things, so I guess MS won't go out of their way to help with the switch.
