My laptop came with Office pre-installed but I have this banner showing up every time I open it, is there a way to disable it for good? - eviltoast

      LibreOffice has a bit of a learning curve, if you come from MS-Office but I think it’s very much worth it.

        A highly underrated feature of LibreOffice Draw is the ability to edit PDFs. Sure it might mess up a font here or there, but there’s no way in hell I’m going to pay adobe an absurd amount of money for that one feature.

        Ms office has a bit of a learning curve if you come from libreoffice, especially learning to forget the PowerPoint doesn’t support styles

      Hasn’t only office had like one update in the last 10 years or something? I stopped recommending that years ago.

      Edit: not only office, open office doesn’t get updated. I misread and mistyped.

        Are you thinking of OpenOffice, maybe? OnlyOffice’s latest stable release is only three weeks ago, while OpenOffice has only had incremental updates to version 4.1 since 2014.

          Oh my you are right. This whole time I was thinking it said open and I typed open for some reason. My bad.
