@libreoffice I love LibreOffice, because it's free and open source and nowhere near as bloated as MS Office. I genuinely prefer LibreOffice, and I'd still choose it even if MS Office was free and supported Linux. Just sent you guys a donation for all of your hard work 🙂

@libreoffice I love #LibreOffice because personal documents can't be tied to any company or propietary format: they must survive obsolescence for any time length. And for their transparent, predictible flow of improvements.

I'd love to get these stickers, but i also love #LibreOffice. Why? Becsuse it can do stuff, I'm not able to do on my work computer running another well known office software.

1. QR-Codes: It's very convenient creating them directly in your document whitout having to rely on (sometimes shady) websites.
2. Use .svg files (and even being able to edit them in external software).
3. Autosave just works and recovering "lost" documents is almost always possible.

@libreoffice I love #LibreOffice as I believe in #opensource and all of our #ToolChain should be free for everyone - just like our #data should belong to ourselves. We want free Tools! We need them more than ever! - Besides that #LibreOffice is the Nr. 1 Open Source Tool I use besides @inkscape and @GIMP - Thanks for keeping up these Options! It is a lot of work - but so important to all of us! Thank you! #opentools for Free People! #democracy

@libreoffice i love #libreoffice because it fully supports the OpenDocument standards unlike another office package I will not mention
Show threadTor LillqvistMay 27
@wisze @libreoffice Not to be rude against you or LibreOffice (which I after all have a close relationship with), but how do you know that it "fully supports" it and how have you checked? Are you sure there are no features of OpenDocument that aren't implemented when LibreOffice's exports or imports OpenDocument files?
Show threadEdwin WiszeMay 27
@tml @libreoffice Good point. I don't know whether it supports all OpenDocument features. What it does support is the accessibility features, unlike that unmentionable other office package.

@libreoffice I don't want to repeat all the amazing reasons that people have already posted, so I'll share that I love #LibreOffice because of the "outdated" interface. I dont like Microsoft's ribbons, and I miss the older versions of office. LibreOffice hits the vibe I enjoy working with and chooses function over fancy menus and confusing navigation.
Show threadYsabeauMay 27
@camthom @libreoffice Why I love this "outdated" interface, is also because I can customize it as I want (and there is an interface that looks like the ribbon if one wants, but much, much customizable). So I have a software more efficient to my work and my needs (my fun and my eyes).

@libreoffice I switched to LibreOffice from OpenOffice and I'm still happy with it like a decade later.
Had to use MS Office for work recently and it's a disaster. The only thing I miss is that the disc icon doesn't go grey after saving. The little red dot just isn't the same 😩
But I love LibreOffice, as a writer I couldn't do without it. Many an eBook has been created using it ❤️

@libreoffice I have been regularly using LibreOffice as my daily routine. Most of the time I'm working on docs, LibreOffice is the choice.

@libreoffice I like LibreOffice because 1) it is intuitive to use, you don't have to read a manual to use basic functions; 2) it is trouble-free to use without Internet in a sandbox (firejail); 3) it can be extended with add-ons; 4) it can read proprietary formats, unfortunately sometimes necessary; 4) its range of functions allows you to have no disadvantages when using free software for word/table/presentation editing.

I love #Libreoffice because it gives you the choice of which interface to use. Because you never have the feeling that someone is constantly looking over your shoulder. And because ODF documents are much more efficient than Microsoft files.
I have been using #Libreoffice for many years. I bought my first version in Munich, when it was still StarOffice version 5.2. That was quite a long time ago.

The stickers are great, but I'm more interested in good software. Unfortunately, I don't have much time to participate in such projects. With job, family, club ... At some point, the day is over. But if I can convince others of #Libreoffice with my opinion, then that's enough for me.

I love #LibreOffice because it's my faithful office companion since even before it was born.
It was StarOffice, first, then OpenOffice and now the most wonderful LibreOffice.
Never been without, in my home computers, but also my office ones (when I was allowed to, and when I wasn't, the portable edition was always there, anyway).
It helped me with university tasks, with personal projects, with home documents, ... and it's even on my 9yo kid laptop!

I love LibreOffice because the interface is practical, usable and dependable.
It’s cross platform, for when I’m not on Linux.
The files are amazingly small.
It natively supports document encryption, using keys in my control.
It’s created with love, by people who care.

Thanks for all the hard work! 💖👌✅
