Har installert #gnumeric , men også #onlyoffice for å teste ut ulike alternativer.

Har også brukt #libreoffice og #openoffice.

Har ikke funnet noe som ikke gjør at jeg ikke kan bruke det ene eller det andre - jeg er ikke så avansert på hjemmebane på kontor applikasjoner. Trenger å kunne føre budsjett, skrive et brev, kanskje lage en presentasjon i ny og ne.

Det viktigste er at formatet er universalt og kan åpnes overalt. Resten blir subjektivt og hva man liker best.

In my experience, the #LibreOffice Calc "VALUEDATE" function can't parse most date text string formats that #Gnumeric, #Excel, Google Sheets (and even Apple's "Numbers" app, apparently) can handle.

I was quite surprised to not be able to find an existing bug report about this, so I filed one, and have to convince people that being able to parse different date formats is a nice thing for that parsing function to be able to do: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170107

170107 – Many text strings dates formats recognized by Excel are not parsed by LibreOffice Calc's DATEVALUE function

@itsfoss I do still use #Abiword and #Gnumeric, and while the latter is completely fine and functional even today for my needs, I'd be eager to see some big improvements for Abiword :)

@RachelThornSub #LibreOffice #Calc is a very mature #spreadsheet software. The quality of the formulas is very good and was tested some time ago to be superior (in terms of accuracy) to #Excel, only #Gnumeric was better in that test. LibreOffice's formulas have been continuously tested, verified, and further improved since then.

@libreoffice

dear #lazyweb: is there a game inventory system that works for #steam and #gog? I never remember what I have on which store.

also kind of interested in a #retrogaming inventoru option beyond a #gnumeric spreadsheet. something to track my carts/discs.

I guess also maybe something like a self hosted backloggery alternative but that's way more detailed than I was thinking.

Whenever I see people talking about LIbreOffice, I think back to the early days of GNOME of AbiWord and Gnumeric.

While they didn't have all the bells and whistles of LibreOffice, they were a delight to use- fast, easy, and I'd say they were fun too.

Yes, StarOffice was functional and powerful, it was never really *fun*. While I'm glad it was freed and made into OpenOffice, then LibreOffice, I wish the simpler tools had persisted.
