I've been listening to normies complain about Libre Office for the last couple of hours, eugh...
It's all "Google, Google, Google, why don't you just use Google Docs?"
Oh, I don't know, maybe because I actually like to work offline? Or maybe because I don't like having my writing censored as I type..?
I mean, come on...
Gmail is already shit enough, on its own.
I'm the same as you, on the laptop I am using right now, lol...
Unfortunately my new one that I am still setting up for everyday use won't let me use older Office versions (I believe), so that is going to be... Awful.
Or even more reasonably asking “why does a for profit, publicly traded company give this out for free? Am I the product” we know how how FOSS are funded like linux distros, libre office, Apache, blender, gimp, etc. through donations, merch, support subscriptions. Google is selling your info. Good enough as any reason to not use their products. And how many different devices are you reasonably working on throughout the day? Word processor files are tiny.
