Given that Office ran on my 486 and Word and Excel did everything back then that I still need them to do today, a slow startup time on modern hardware is ridiculous.
Office should be modular with a lean core and extensions for those who need them.
- spicybright 1y agoI wish libreoffice was better. I've tried replacing office with it and every time it has the weirdest stuff going on. UI is clunky, importing/exporting office made docs is glitchy, and I've even run into actions that don't get pushed to the undo stack. I know this stuff always gets slowly ironed out, and the devs are working really hard, but it's just a shame it's never been a viable alternative for so long.
- ipcress_file 1y agoI bought Softmaker Office last year. The Textmaker word processor is better than LibreOffice Writer. It's more MS Office compatible, so I don't get complaints about formatting issues from co-workers.
