that’s why you should use LibreOffice
Comment on LibreOffice blasts 'fake open source' OnlyOffice for working with Microsoft to lock users in

The headline doesn’t match the article, but indeed onlyoffice it’s not real open source.
In my language onlyoffice has several typos. Went to GitHub to submit a PR and… there are no translations to translate.
I open an issue and they tell me to send the fixes to someone by email. I send them, they are ignored and 5 years later it’s still with the annoying typos.
This is a program where they pretend to be open only for marketing but they aren’t actually open

I use OnlyOffice for PDFs since it can set a default zoom level. LibreOffice can’t, which it just stupid.
I use LibreOffice for other stuff though.

you can get a dedicated PDF viewer. I use my system PDF viewer and it works better than Adobe PDF I have been using for ages. This one actually makes reading PDFs bearable in the dark

Even your web browser is a decent PDF reader. Also LibreOffice Draw shows PDF pretty well and you can also edit it to some extent.

Understood. I need to be able to add text and draw slaps shapes etc on PDFs.

That sounds like it should be relatively easy to implement.

As soon as Writer allows for a static standard scroll bar that doesn’t auto-hides, I will. Call me irrational, but I cannot use an application based around scrolling with no real scroll bar.

You can use “pg up” and “pg dn” to scroll. That’s what I use and it also helps that my laptop has a touchscreen so I have no complaints about scrolling around my work in LibreOffice

I’ll try those keys. But when you have a document with multiple chapters, the actual buttons on a scroll bar that is full width and static are pretty critical. Not everyone uses it for TPS reports.
