LibreOffice is pretty damn good (lemmy.ca)

Today I did my first advanced spreadsheet on LibreOffice after switching to Linux, and it handled itself pretty well. I had to search for some features on the web at first, but after I got it down, I felt comfortable using it. Also, LibreOffice's default menu layout is not pretty, but I can find all of the functions with just a click, unlike MS Office's ribbon menu where I had to click around to find what I was looking for. Sorry for bad English.

Yeah; it's pretty great. It lacks the excel functions, but if you know some python that is a total non-issue.

Yes

I do wish it had a self hosted docker though. I could see Proton mail and thunder mail adopting it that way, which would be neat.

Is a self hosted docker different from this?

Yeah, but it'd be better if calc gridlines didn't have that unchangeable fade effect

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
