It's subjective. LibreOffice UI is why I stay away from MS Office. I can't find anything in MS Office anymore, I have to rely on their "search for command" feature (or whatever it's called) to be able to do anything. LibreOffice is mostly intuitive for me. On the other hand, my father does not like it and keeps nagging me to buy him the MS product (I can't justify the costs for his casual use though).
- Agraillo 2y agoI think that sometimes making drastic UI changes like MS Office did is one of negative incentives of commercial software. They always need something visually noticeable to justify added value of new versions.

- lproven 2y ago> LibreOffice UI is why I stay away from MS Office. I can't find anything in MS Office anymore, Exactly this. I much prefer LO to any version of MS Office since 2007. And early in my career I trained people on how to use MS Office and was something of a domain expert. 18Y ago they threw that into the shredder along with all my knowledge and muscle memory. What little functionality is left is literally not worth the pain and annoyance of trying to use it.
