@libreoffice please don't sell out to Google like this.

Do you honestly think that Google is your friend?

I was considering donating to LibreOffice, now I guess there is little point since you anyway have the support of Google, and I guess you also get Google giving you advice on your development. You don't need my money, when Google has so much more money to give you.

Perhaps you also don't care about my opinion when you have Google's opinion, Google is so much more powerful.

@libreoffice but I will give you my opinion anyway, in case you are open to influence from others than Google:

Google's dominance is extremely harmful for anyone who wants freedom regarding the use of technology in the world today. What is good for Google is bad for freedom.

It is very easy to understand why Google wants to associate itself with something like LibreOffice, it helps Google's image very much. But what is the upside for you? You are now on "team Google"?

I feel betrayed..
