    Sometimes I find myself annoyed by Lemmy users. We love to tout foss alternatives, even when they don’t work as well, or aren’t nearly as polished.

    Libre office is a different story, it has everything you’ll need, it’s really complete, it does everything you want and it can read any format you throw at it and save its output in any format you need. It launches faster than Microsoft office, it’s more stable, I really have absolutely no complaints, everyone should be using it.

      Libre doesn’t support IDM, nor provide email, nor MFA, nor CAM, nor MDM, nor storage.

      M365 Business Premium is a LOT more than Office Documents.

        Yeah that’s fair, I’ve seen how Office business integrates with the OS and a bunch of network services, so I’m not surprised by that. Well, for those corporate environments I expect MS will continue to be the norm. But for small businesses and home use, Libra is really fantastic.

        And honestly, for personal use I could do without all that email and calendar integration, good riddance.

        Edit: Also storage? MFA? MDM? Why would you want that in an office suite? like maybe MDM is useful, but it doesn’t belong in the office suite. And the rest of the acronyms I didn’t even recognize… So I’m guessing they also don’t really belong.

          Why would you want cloud storage for users in a business? Why would you want multifactor authentication for your users? Are you serious?
