    @libreoffice

    It's the strongest argument available for weaning users off of predatory Microsoft, and proprietary Apple, products. #Linux

      @libreoffice I'll admit, I don't really use LibreOffice, other than for opening files from people who obstinately send me MS Word files.

      It's not a failing of Libre Office, I have no need for any word processor ... but I recognise that I am not the world.

      LibreOffice is very important. Free software and open standards are important. So, congratulations OpenOffice on your latest release, may it help free the world of software.

          @libreoffice

          I've been using #libreoffice for 10 years in my consulting business & i love it. all my clients use #msoffice, and my presentations & spreadsheets are seamless💙

          I do very much want libre to release a tablet version. i always use 2-in-1 laptops, so i can notate on the fly, but i can't draw freehand in libreoffice
          especially being able to sketch diagrams or mark up things in the presentation app. i really miss that feature from powerpoint😞

            (Note that the first point in that list is about explicitly *destroying* the "community".)

              @analog_feelings You know, there's indeed a lot of AI slop out there, so we understand if you're getting fatigue. But you could just ask us: there's actually a hard-working team of real people at TDF (and hundreds of volunteers) creating real software and content.

                @WorldTravelerAll7 Glad you like it! 😊 As you know, we're a community open source project with limited resources, so we focus on the desktop app. But anyone who wants more improvements to the mobile version can help our volunteers, or consider funding developers: https://www.documentfoundation.org/certified-developers/

                  @libreoffice

                  maybe i'll do that💙

                  i am referring to "desktop", not a "mobile" version. i have a windows laptop, so i use the windows desktop version. i don't use it on my phone

                  but i use convertible laptops with touchscreens so i can fold it over & take notes while surveying operations

                  is there a group working on making LibreOfffice work on touchscreens?

                        @analog_feelings I think you missed the point 😉 We write everything manually. You made an incorrect assumption 😉
