Wine fans have a reason to smile today. Wine 11.0 is finally here, and it is a big deal for anyone running Windows software on Linux. After a full year of work, more than six thousand code changes, and hundreds of bug fixes, Wine is moving forward in a way that feels like a turning point. This release tightens up major subsystems, improves performance, expands hardware support, and carries a big win for compatibility. If you have been waiting for Wine to feel smoother and a little less fussy, 11.0 might be the moment you jump back in.

this is always going to be the toughest as the developer is known for not wanting their things to work or be compatible even with standards they publish.

    Office 2010 is all you really need. Hell Microsoft is trying to make everything electron apps anyway. So we'll get full (current year) office running on Linux soon, for better or for worse.

    I have been doing fine with libre office. I mostly do doc and send as pdf. If they ask for word format I save it as such and send it to them. spreadsheet and slides I don't share. Granted at workplaces I use whatever they give me to use on my work machine.
