What does it do that LibreOffice Calc doesn't do?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 9 months ago

Smooth scrolling.

Kind of serious, the lack of smooth scrolling makes Calc really horrible to use on a touchpad or with large/differing sized cells (formatted sheets with headers and such)

[–] [email protected] 27 points 9 months ago

Almost nothing, considering Calc is a clone. I don't think people are excluding LibreOffice from the list of smooth brain apps.

Not lagging horribly with big tables after calculating a simple formula? That's the only thing i can think of. Everything else is just very similar

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh but excel does lag heavily with any table over a couple megabytes, of course that's only on my computer

You probably have apple stuff or Intel or windows /s

Embed objects and query spaces from other Microsoft products, mainly.

It's a circular argument that all of the corporate world is too heavily invested in to change.
