I work in education & I use & recommend #LibreOffice to my students:

No licence fees (great for students on a tight budget),

Forward & backward compatibility with files (so you don't lose access to your own & others' work),

UX that just lets you get on with work/study (no pop-ups, ads, nag-ware),

Really useful plugins, e.g. Zotero connector,

& just a pleasure to use! 🤓

@matbury LibreOffice is great, but I bet most of your students use Google Docs anyway. That is what they are used to.

@jredlund They use it because that's the way their Chromebooks are designed; It's more difficult to use any of the alternatives - That's Google's "dark patterns" at work.

Pretty much the same as what Microsoft were prosecuted for doing with Windows & Office.
