On a personal note, as the person running this account, it's especially awesome to see #Audacity on the list -- that was my first introduction to #FOSS in 2001.

Gateway software is important 😉

@thunderbird downloading #libreoffice now!

@cubeofcheese @thunderbird

Libre Office is great, but honestly I stopped using a word processor once I learned of the powerful combination of #org and #LaTeX. I use #libreOffice when I need to deal with other people's documents. If your missing functionality, look into the addons.

@zbecker @thunderbird I've never heard of org. What's that?

@cubeofcheese @thunderbird

It is similar to #markDown. I use it in #emacs, which allows me to also use latex functions and compile it all into a #LaTeX pdf by converting the org syntax to latex syntax. It is a much, much quicker way to write than just using latex alone.

If you aren't familiar with markdown, most #FOSS projects will have a README.md, that is a markdown document.
