Latvia is partly involved, yes, but it’s also part Russian and recently moved to Singapore. You may find the history section on Wikipedia interesting; it also lists the russian part-ownership as reason for many users leaving OnlyOffice (and I’ve seen quite a few posts on that at the time).
As for the open-source part, I stand corrected, thank you

My point still stands.
The developer is registered in Latvia. Yes, it had at one point connection to Russia, so what? A lot of software was developed in Russia. Nginx, for example, that does not prevent millions of websites from using it.
Users leaving OnlyOffice is mostly about enterprise edition (paid) users. In fact, many of them left enterprise version for the Foss version.

I’m afraid you don’t understand when they say that the Russians are evil behind this, and when they shouldn’t, they will just keep silent. This is how double standards work. 😀
