I switched over to EndeavourOS around the same time. I relegated my old windows install to a virtual image, which I boot into for specific games and Excel. 10/10 recommend.

I switched to mint like a month before PewDiePie lol
My main issue is that I kinda need actual Excel every so often because I require things like power query. I tried installing it using Wine, but it needs to authenticate with Microsofts servers, even the older versions.

Have you tried OnlyOffice? It has better compatibility with MS formats than LibreOffice.
Vinstaal0@feddit.nl 3 weeks ago
OnlyOffice is worse (and not because of the security breach implications), but because it misses the Ctrl+D shortcut (copies the cell above to the current cell). Which is something I use A LOT for data entry.

Wait, what security breach implications?

Can’t find the exact article I found about the security issues, I did find some more controversies surrounding it, but this thread is about the best Ican do regarding the information with the security breaches: www.reddit.com/r/…/stop_recommending_onlyoffice/

You can spin up a virtual machine running Tiny10 and install office on that. Should work fine.
