FOSS Microsoft Office for Linux (lemmy.world)

submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Looking for an alternative to Microsoft Office for the Linux.

I've already tried:

LibreOffice (It doesn't have the same experience as Microsoft's apps.)
OnlyOffice Desktop Editors (I like it)

What else would you recommend?

Nothing has exactly the same experience as MS. I don't think there is a clone project for it.

The two you listed are your best options.

Does LibreOffice have any issues that prevent you using it? If not, it's probably that your expectations are set by your comfort and familiarity with Office and that is the problem you need to solve.

Microsoft has a history of being sue happy against people that have tried to ape MS's cash cows in the past, so you won't find a clone project
