      What was so bad about LibreOffice Calc? For me it’s quite the opposite - Calc is the best out of the whole LibreOffice suite compared to MS Office…

        I agree with this, and the GUI is simpler on Calc. Pivot Table, Filter indeed great in Calc, and I love how having snapshot for each file portable not depends on the OS file history.

        Last I love how now days I can use LibreOffice more than ever than 10 years ago… [email protected]

      Online office365 excel is a thing if you need to use for work, etc. I have been almost exclusively using Linux for work since 2017 now. There are some apps for linux like MS Edge, MS Teams, Teamviewer, Webex, Zoom etc. But to fill the excel void I just login via the web browser. It is not 100% identical to using the native Excel App but close enough that I don’t need Windows. LibreOffice was working for casual excel tasks but I found it removed the auto table row shading from excel documents, and when submitting reports it was best to keep the look consistent.

      Does Android get no credit for making Linux mainstream? Or does it literally need to have Linux in the name so elder technophiles can feel vindicated?

        Linux on the desktop. Linux has dominated just about every other space of computing (embedded, servers, supercomputers, etc) for a very long time.

        But the space all the open source community cared about was the desktop. So happy we’re finally making progress.
