Final few days of the Month of LibreOffice! And you can get a sticker pack by simply using the hashtag #LibreOffice and telling the world why you love the suite 🥰
@libreoffice I love #LibreOffice for the ease of use, the richer features, the consistent media alignment and reliable SVG support, open document format, easy to install, easy to distribute, most consistent multi-platform experience, great documentation with real-world examples, helpful community and there's no stupid subscription! I prefer donating and have several times. Going to again later this week.
Thanks LibreOffice team! This is great software I never want to be without!
@ellabellafull save for the parts related to it being a gratis software, my experience is quite the opposite. When you say richer features, what are you comparing it to and what features do you mean?
@Bindestriche What trouble have you had? Find some bugs to report?
@ellabellafull there is no way to search for functions like in windows, impress has none of the autoalign features, writer randomly crashes. Unfortunately, I can not make it crash reliably, so no bug report. Also, calc can't open 100mb CSV even with 32gb of ram. Don't get me wrong it's still my goto sofware, I don't like the idea that a company could lock me away from my docs any day without warning.
@Bindestriche I’d like to learn more about function searching. You mean you search for a string pattern of “=SUM”?
I think I see what you mean. I just made two workbooks, one in Excel, other in Calc, and did some cols with values and then a couple =SUM() functions.
Then I went CTRL+F and searched for string “SUM” in both apps. Excel jumped to where the function was located. Calc couldn’t find it.
Looks like a feature gap!
