   I feel like the entire world needs to take a plunge towards LibreOffice for the good of all.

      I think LibreOffice is an outdated and overall awful piece of software. It's not like Open Source champions like Linux, Blender and Godot at all.

      Its only advantage is being Free. This product couldn't survive in the market if it was paid, arguably at any price. I really tried it to use and love it, but LibreOffice is just terrible.

         What modern features are you looking for in a say, document editor? My experience with LibreOffice Writer and Calc has been excellent. I'm happy there is no modern AI or cloud integration noise or ribbon bars with excessive whitespaces.

            I mostly just want UI icons that make sense. The LibreOffice icons all look samey to me, can never find what I'm looking for.
