Hi there. Article author here.
> Very bad UX.
I disagree. I think it is _much_ better than most rivals such as OnlyOffice, WPS Office, and of course MS Office itself since 2007.
> OnlyOffice is leaps and bounds better.
It's years since I wrote about it.

But I not only disagree, I strongly and vehemently disagree.
I am not saying you are wrong to like what you like; you do you. I'm saying I personally despise ribbon-based UIs; I find them unusable.
I want the choice. MS and WPS do not give that. I can't even remember if OnlyOffice does but I don't think so.
It is very important to always remember that "what I like" is not the same as "what is best".
- v3ss0n 2y agoyou can disagree all you want , that is experience from our tests and based off from all the complaints from my clients (50 users) back in 2022 . OnlyOffice had become daily drivers for us and it is leaps and bounds better in Terms of Performance , Ease of Use and Compatibility with office formats. Very simple formatting could break and LibreOffice refuse to fix those but blames Microsoft for the format changes - that is deal breaker for us.
