Huge win for open standards and freedom from vendor lock-in! Germany’s Sovereign Digital Stack mandates ODF, the Open Document Format: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/03/19/germanys-sovereign-digital-stack-mandates-odf/
@libreoffice Libreoffice not a hard move for home use, I’ve used it for years and my wife converted a couple of years ago. The only sticking point is occasionally sending attachments without saving them as .docx etc. Not a biggy but if Microslop and other vendors have to accept off then all is better!
A side note, once Libreoffice was accepted at home then the move to Linux was an easier sell. After all it’s the office apps that lock people into Windows.
