>Libreoffice UI is shi- ACK
>>101212741Cool, but is a pale copy of MS Office the best FOSShitters can do?
>>101212741>70 choices of GUI styles>0 good and polished onesThe Loonix(tm) experience.
>>101212776An exact copy minus MS bullshit, FOSS and free?Sign me up
>>101212776>>101212785good morning sirs
>>101212804I am using Loonix, #yold. You'd have to be brain-damaged not to see its flaws tho.Every time I have to interact with LibreOffice it's not a good experience, especially since it's infested with GTKisms.
>>101212741LibreOffice? Never heard of her.
>people using libre office when onlyoffice exists, is free, and open source
>>101212741but why? ms office 2000 was peak, and that's the only UI anyone should strive to replicate.
>>101212878stfu nigger
>>101212741Who cares about the UI, as long as you can get your job done? Not me
>>101212841>>101212848Redpill me on onlyoffice
>>101212952
Just use Google Docs
>>101212741My bigger concern is pdf editing is still shit. The fonts not recognized so there's no way to edit pdfs properly
>>101213056>Just use Google DocsEww no
>>101212848>and open sourcewake me up when you can actually compile it from source via AUR
>>101212741>xlookup doesn't work
>>101212741Are there any word processors out there that doesn't come with a full on bloated office suite or millions of random features I will never use?I basically just want WordPad but foss.
>>101212827>it's not a good experienceNeither is MS office. Every time I have to use this piece of shit I have to google where to find things because the menus are unintuitive as fuck. Also it's blosted as fuck and every time you insert a large picture it freezes for like 10 seconds and becomes unresponsive, this never happens in libreoffice.
>>101213192You can only download libreoffice writer without the rest of the suiteIf that's not your speed look into markdown text editors, those are great for your use case and there's a lot of good FOSS ones
>>101212741Single toolbar is best.
>>101213056>just get spied on by google and be reliant on internet
>>101213263It's more just the nonsensical cluttered interface filled with a billion features I will never use and the laughably slow startup speed that bother me. I don't need enterprise word processing, I just want a braindead word processes that is basically one step up from a text editor.As for markdown, any good ones that have live preview and a UI with buttons for typeface and font settings, headers, that stuff?
>>101213356To be honest I have no ideaThere's too many of them out thereSearch "markdown" in flathub or your distro's software manager and try to find the one you like most
>>101213192>>101213356i was looking in alternative too and found abiwordhttps://alternativeto.net/software/abiword/about/
Where are my WPS Office chads at?
>>101213712>chink spyware
>>101212741why have they still not fixed their docs? Looks garbage when you search anything you get the old docs from 2013 instead of the latest and in general its just way too many words instead of short well rounded examples. Also performance wise it sucks I don't understand why it struggles so much with 100k rows.
>>101213113>not using hundreds of nested if statements instead
>>101213048>OnlyOffice relies heavily on online connectivityno thanks
>>101213712>chinatsu themed spreadsheet>banded row colors match her inner thighs and panties
>>101214129It works completely offline
Are there any spreadsheet apps that fix the abomination that is excel-style formula language and replace it with a sane functional language with let bindings and functions, with a syntax highlighted editor and built-in lsp?
>>101212741trvkeonlyoffice trannies dilate
>>101213106>/g/ babby cannot into maintaining local repos and compilationpathetic
>>101214623Excel has LET() and LAMBDA()
>>101214840I'm aware, but it's far too painful to use excel formula language for myriad other reasons.
>>101212741thats shit
>>101212804hasn't LibreOffice been officially adopted by multiple Indian states LMFAO?
>>101215248Only an Indian would know that
>>101215248Is Germany an Indian state?
>>101213712Too based for this world.
>>101212741tabbed interface is better desu
>>101212794You do know the F in FOSS is for free, right?
>>101214129Just like Micoshaft bullshit, eh?
>>101215280No, it's an Arab Marxist state at this point.
>>101212804saar!
>>101212741try onlyoffice. literally the best.
>>101212741>ctrl+pagedownACK- you're now at line 1,048,576>want to apply formula on a filtered sheet?ACK- that's not supported!>want to share this worksheet with work colleagues?sure just use this old 2007 .xls format and hope it's compatible with their excel programthe absolute state
>>101213712Holy based. >>101212741It's unusable, I had to go back to office the next day cause of how slow it is and compatibility issues.
>>101215371free as in freedom or price?
>>101212776works for me. must be a skills issue
>>101215546>sure just use this old 2007 .xls format and hope it's compatible with their excel programBlatant lying. It works seemlessly with xlsx and other win10+ format>Formula isn't supportedscreenshot?>has never just pressed ctrl-down too many times excel
>>101215641Free as in rent free

>>101214881even doe it isnt
>>101215784its terrible. I doubt its hard to make it look better they already did 80% of the work
>>101212741Why would I use ribbons?? Microdick should SELF-ACK for introducing this cancerous UI concept in the first place.
>>101215905looks good to me
>>101215950Stfu boomer
>>101213323> get spied onunavoidable, cope
>>101217557holy retard
>>101217557>rapist mentality>also wrong
webdav with selfsigned https certs is still broken with no fix in progress
>>101216159its the terrible choice of monochrome icons + text + lack of borders the gtk4 mockup was way better. Onlyoffice avoids it by being cleaner. Probably didn't want to copy MS homeworks but its important as the above examples shows. /g/ usually hates flat shit so why ignore this?
the notes UI in impress is awful and it is crazy that it took so long to resolve, people have been complaining for about a decadegetting fixed in the next major release though
