    No better time to switch to LibreOffice, if you can!

      but to get everything ms 365 offers, you want to check out nextcloud.

        Yup. I pay about $6/month for Hetzner with my NextCloud. Love it.

      It now offers “ribbons” in the UI, if you so choose, too.

                Are you saying a business has never said “this needs to be a PDF” before?

                Fuck off with that noise. If they don’t understand how to use “save as” they don’t deserve the contract.

    I will continue to globally not use Office 365 again for another year. Easy.

      I have switched to LibreOffice and Linux this year. Getting off the subs was such a relief!

        it’s a learning curve, but it’s well worth it, and much nicer on the wallet for sure.

    Yeah, I decided back then I would probably not renew my subscription this summer. And I didn’t!

    Funny thing, I thought I was more productive in MS Office because the user interface is more polished. But even when LibreOffice is at times janky, I’m actually far more productive in it, it turns out. Sure, my attention is always drawn on the tiny little things that trip me up, but if I look at the sheer amount of text and spreadsheets I can churn out, I’m doing much better on LO.

    Cancelled a little while ago and now moved to Euro-Office. Lame title, works really well.

    And before people get at me: Especially Euro-office’s sheets are so much closer to a 1:1 replacement for Excel.
