[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 41 points 1 year ago (1 child) I’m going to have to amplify Clownsinspace2’s suggestion of libreoffice. It is free and open source. It will output files in any way you want including MS readable formats. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] maverickseraph@lemmy.dbzer0.com [S] -9 points 1 year ago (4 children) yea its just hard getting used to new UI, unfortunately i have fallen into Microsofts comfortablity trap permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] tfm@europe.pub 15 points 1 year ago You can change to a ribbon UI https://itsfoss.com/libreoffice-ribbon-interface/ permalink fedilink source parent [–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago I had the same issue when I moved from Office XP to OpenOffice, then switched to Libre Office. Then I had I job where I had to maintain multiple laptops for uses in our meeting and presentation space. Included on those laptops had to be Office. I tried switching back to Office, and found myself always reaching for Libre instead. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Agosagror@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 year ago Youll benefit so much once you rip the bandaid off, saves so much time instead of fathing around torrent sites.
