It’s disgusting how many businesses have been herded into wasting money on products they can be using for free, then convincing customers they “need more money.”
I’m fully in support of LibreOffice and the fact that it can do a lot for free. However it is far from an enterprise product.
I’m still waiting for anybody to make a true competitor to Excel. There’s some decrnt spreadsheet software but there’s really no comparison to the functionality of Excel. Even Google sheets is a distant second.
My point is, when there are power users involved LibreOffice just won’t cut it.
LibreOffice is the GOAT of office softwares
Without a doubt. Very good MS Office compatibility now, alongside a user interface that gets me to what I need and is heavily customisable, and very well done integration with Zotero (the best thing ever for citations) through an extension comes together to being by far my most preferred office suite even when I have to use Windows. In addition, Draw has saved me at least a few times when I’ve had to deal with some PDFs that other software finds difficult to work with.
Have you ever tried dark mode in libreoffice? Else you would know the truth
I’ve had many bugs with it (like dark theme that seems completely broken)
I use KDE and just reverse all the colors with a configured Custom shortcut.
OnlyOffice looks so much better and simpler.
Its slower
How did you test it’s apparent ‘slowness’? I use it and have no issue.
If you can’t provide a better reason than a meme you are already out of the running with life.
OK buddy
i have tried self-hosting libreoffice with nextcloud and it sucks. can anyone help?
Onlyoffice seems a little bit better.
What about it sucks?
I self-host Collabora Code in Nextcloud and think it’s excellent.
it’s really slow? even on a tailscale connection. Does HTTP/3 would make it better?
It’s really snappy for me behind a Traefik reverse proxy (with HTTP/3) but I got it running on a beefy machine so I’m not sure how heavy it is.
