Microsoft alternative: Nextcloud and Ionos develop open-source ‘Euro-Office’ - Reddthat

>Nextcloud, Ionos and other partners are developing an open-source office suite under the project name „Euro-Office“ as an alternative to the market-dominant Microsoft Office. > >The two partners are not starting from scratch, but have forked the components of OnlyOffice available as open-source code and want to build on them. In the summer, the software is then intended to replace the previous office component Collabora in Nextcloud and the Ionos Nextcloud Workspace. A ‘technical preview’ is already available on GitHub [https://github.com/Euro-Office/]. While this is a good news, I think they should move from github, you know microslop copilot…

Sounds good to me! I hope they support the open document formats better than onlyoffice currently does. Also euro-office isn’t a particularly good name, although it has the advantage of being explicit about where it’s based.
I hear this argument a lot but no one ever gives details as to what common features excel has vs say libreoffice. I’m really curious, because i’d like to contribute free time in this direction.
It looks like a well deserved middle finger to the US.

I would suggest FreedomOffice.

It’s like “freedom fries”, but with actual freedom.

Maybe liberation office, or just LibreOffice for short.
