On one hand, the government should be looking at OSS. On the other hand, screw Microsoft’s shitty office software. If missing out on massive government contracts forces them to improve it, I’m all for it.

OSS usually has pretty bad support. Office sucks but it is much better than Workspace and many other alternatives.

Microsoft’s support also suuuuuuuuucks. We paid $500 once for assistance on an issue with a specific piece of hardware and the OS, and it took them MONTHS to even respond to us. I’d been demanding a refund for at least a full quarter before they even gave me the first response…

Yeah, I don’t know why people rave about Microsoft support. It sucks.

the us government, if it’s ever run by non-fascists, could easily afford to hire developers to not only properly support it but actively maintain and improve it.
especially with how many software engineers are being constantly laid off from big tech monsters.
