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…

Are there any real, actually good replacements for Excel? As a daily power user, every alternative I’ve tried to date pales in comparison.

May I suggest Python ?

By the time you get tits deep in Excel to the point where other spreadsheets can’t hack it, you may as well be using a real programming language instead of VBA…

If you can do advanced Excel, you can do Python (and numpy will crush Excel in ways that aren’t even funny, well OK, it’s funny too).

You won’t find any applicants for a secretary, HR, or accounting position if it requires knowledge of Python.
None of those positions are expected to know VBA script either.
If an accountant can’t do a VLOOKUP. I would be concerned
