Proton launches privacy-first alternative to Excel and Google Sheets
(www.techzine.eu)
nice
I've been waiting for this!... I have a couple of personal spreadsheets with Google but that's it.
Now I can completely move to Proton (not the best but at least better) and spend my day filling and removing my Google Drive with garbage tehehehe
Is it called collabora calc?
Their philosophy is a bit fucked to be able to recommend them. https://forum.collaboraonline.com/t/collabora-office-on-windows-without-paying-microsoft/3619
How is reimbursement for the money Microsoft itself asks to be published on their Store, a "fucked up philosophy"?
You are blaming the wrong party.
I have no issue with the payment, my issue is with the only available pre-built distribution being Microsoft Store.
It's really an issue of their own making as they market themselves as an alternative to Microsoft prodcuts while using Microsoft as a dependancy in their pipeline. Which also makes it a single failure point.
