    Paying to use Microsoft office when OnlyOffice exists, lmao.

    And if it’s a company paying for the user’s Microsoft office bs, then imo the point is mute.

    Honestly, Microsoft can get bent. They aren’t going to negotiate to 0, these actions are being done after being long overdue, and it’s clear this administration is raising hell.

    And the extra incentive here of $29B in tax dollars isn’t going to hurt either.

      I’m not sure why you’re getting downvoted. OO is great for MSOffice files. I love LibreOffice, and it’s great for many things. It just can’t beat OO at MSOffice interoperability
