Seems like DHH started this movement to make Office365 work on Linux, you can now use it via Soda 11.0-11 (WINE). I hate to rely on compatibility layers for mission critical software, but this is a good thing, WINE chads, Agentic people and RE chads are all working on it.

Oh thank fuck, I've been waiting to write bibliographies on Linux. I would use Office 2007 since it works well through Wine but I don't trust any of the cracks.
>>
>>109780785
Office 2000 up to 2007 worked long time ago IIRC. Why would anyone want these cucked versions with subscriptions, spyware and cloud integration?
>>
>>109780858
Show me an Office 2007 crack that is 100% verified to not be malware and I'll install it with Wine immediately. I fucking hate LibreOffice
>>
>>109780785
Move away from Windows just to install Office on Linux lol.
Have you not heard of Libreoffice or Onlyoffice ?
>>
>>109780907
>Have you not heard of Libreoffice or Onlyoffice ?
Neither of them have bibliographies or in-text citations. OnlyOffice doesn't have middle-click scrolling either; LibreOffice does but it's extremely slow.

probably on archive... also for untrusted or semi untrusted software, don't use system WINE, use bottles WINE, because of the sandboxing and just cut the internet. And maybe create a dir in: ~/Documents/Bottles and give it permission to see that dir with Flatseal.

>>109780907
Need office365 for work, my work laptop is on linux. I've just been using the webapps but I could see why people might want the microshit programs.
>>
>>109780930
Flatseal would apply to every bottle, no?
>>
>>109780991
Yes, but there is a new setting in the bottles app "Per Bottle Sandbox" you can use that. But even if every bottle has access to your specified dir, it doesn't really matter, because you specifically created that for Bottles and it only has access to ~/Documents/Bottles for example and it can't see ~/Documents, just ~/Documents/Bottles

Isn't office 365 is a web shit? Why would you need desktop application for that?

The only language I should have to know to write an English essay is fucking English itself. Give me a good GUI or give me death.
>>
>>109781209
you don't need ms office or latex to do that
but once you add figures, tables, or citations to the equation, office shits the document every. single. time.
>>
>>109780785
Until it's native, this won't matter. That includes OneDrive too
>>
>>109781357
wine is native. it's just an alternative libc instead of glibc. 99% of the games you hear about that "work on linux" are just using wine and nobody cares.

Works on my machine.

Gamers have proven time and again to gobble any old shit up regardless of quality so your comparison does not work

Pretty cool but I have enough RAM to just virtualize entire windows 11.

can't this dogshit run in a web browser anyway?
what's the fucking point?
call me when they get the ACTUAL desktop versions running
>>
>>109781399
what he means is that 365 is all webshit, the installed version is a glorified webapp
>>
>>109781419
cool if they fixed it
There was a time when I was doing research papers, the format had to be two columns on one page because the professor would not read them otherwise. Literally every time I'd add a non-text object, the document became a real frankenstein. Then I spent about 1/500th of the time spent of fixing the setting up a latex template, and it literally saved me hours of tedious work and have never looked back.
I'm sure there are even better systems than latex today.

Some baby ducks prefer local only, but if you don't use copilot and a cracked local version, it doesn't really matter, because any older cracked version werks. So yeah, I don't get it.
>>
>>109780858
Because they're too baby duck to use Libreoffice.
>>
>>109780785
> 365 in thirdie language
Pass.

>>109780907
Desu, both suck compared to word and excel
>>
>>109782120
libreoffice is shit
>>
>>109782155
So is Office365
What is your point? Only plebby babbies use office shit software for serious work.
And if you are doing serious work, you already have MSO/O365 and can just use those on your company approved computing device in compliance with M$s shitty licencing or use the web versions, which are honestly better since they aren't dog shit slow and full of zany OLE plugins with antivirus making shit slower
>>
>>109782155
Then pester ms to release Office365 as free software
It would save us a lot of trouble
>>
Ayooooo wtf DHH is a GOD
>>
>>109780785
How are photoshop and premier progressing through wine?
>>
If we can recompile video games why can't we de-recompile all proprietary software and open source it by force, especially now that proprietary software is "contaminated" by AI code trained on open source software.

A "Stallman 9/11" needs to happen.
>>
>>109782452
Some anons use cracked PS on Linux. The online AI shit doesn't work (but that doesn't work on windows either) so some just use an older cracked PS version, was it 2021? Seems like it werks. m0nkrus bs
