Just use Office.

I will. Just wanted to make a thread showing "it just works" retards that it doesn't and linux alternatives are worthless

>just use office
MS is pushing web versions which are far more crippled than o/l office.
Office hasn't been 'good' (usable) in about a decade.

Plenty of just werks software doesnt actually just werk
I remember when I first tried Mint and my mouse sensitivity and wallpaper kept resetting every time I booted the computer
Obviously there are ways around it and I stuck with it and learned the damned thing but at that point you can't help but wonder why it should even offer a GUI for the setting you want to change
And then you realize it stopped being "just werks" and became a question of how much you're willing to trade convenience for freedom or whatever, some stuff really has you jumping through hoops to avoid proprietary software. Of course there are reasons that are ideological rather than practical about it and I won't dismiss them but the fact remains that plenty of stuff labeled as just werking is misleading

this is why linux continue to fail on desktops.
in before hurrrr retard

I'm a long time linux user but only for server stuff, virtualization and homelab. for day by day use I'll stick with windows, thanks.

i wonder if its an issue with zorin since i'm unfamiliar with it, but I ran debian on shitty gear just fine
i think you should have tried some other distro, but then again, it's not easy to shake off a bad first impression and you can rarely avoid being caught in the crossfire of some gay distro war as a newbie to desktop linux
