I've been trying to use #LibreOffice as a replacement for #MSOffice but it's really not the same, lots of small things that do not work in the same way or that do not exist at all, whether in word/ writer or PowerPoint/ pages.

Is there another MSOffice-equivalent out there that is more similar to Office but non-profit?
Like... the Zorin OS of MSOffice?

@[email protected] yeah, OnlyOffice is *officially* based in Latvia but that seems to be a front? See e.g. https://forum.cryptpad.org/d/232-onlyoffice-concerns-vendor-makes-shady-moves

@chartgerink I edited the link in my previous post..
Yeah it is frustrating to often have to compromise! But sometimes good and non-profit things do exist..

@elduvelle @chartgerink

Libre Office is by far the most solid project. Maybe some cloud-based offerings are progressing also? I think you'll be stuck with making LO work ? I use it happily enough, but probably use it less and other software more than some would (text editors, python, R, LaTeX...)
