Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward
xvertigox@lemmy.world 1 day agoI’m using OnlyOffice bins on linux and find it to be a fantastic suite for my (minimal) uses. Not sure how it works on Windows though.

I’m unclear on the differences between OpenOffice (which I genuinely thought was retired, didn’t realize it was still a thing) and LibreOffice. If it ever gives you trouble, do make the switch.

OnlyOffice, not OpenOffice. This is a different suite entirely. Might be better for people coming from MS Office, since it looks practically identical. Also supports opening multiple files as tabs.

Ah. I tried that a few times and didn’t care for it myself. Weird that my brain thought it saw OpenOffice.

Only office is designed for people who work with MS files. Libre Office is for people who work with open files.

It’s still being kept barely alive for whatever reason. But it hasn’t gotten any reasonable updates (I think not even including security updates as of recently, see www.libreoffice.org/…/libreoffice-vs-openoffice/ ).

It’s not gone. It’s still around. Libre is forked from OpenOffice. When Libre was forked, everyone moved to Libre because Open has a lot of issues, which is why Libre was forked.

Got it. Thanks.
