Next office replacement. I use excel a lot and lately it became a dog shit.
Last week, out of the blue, I got an error saying excel cannot save this file mind you I’m saving the file on desktop.
LibreOffice exists and works very well!
I use it at home and I was shocked when I knew it even runs VBA.
Unfortunately my work laptop has to be windows. I won’t touch Microslop product after working hours.
Edit: since they used forgejo, I meant by next is replacing Microslop Office with open source.
You mean that it has to be Microsoft? Cuz Libreoffice works on windows.
Yeah, it's tough with work restrictions. Thankfully I was able to finagle my way out of windows at work and am in Linux now.
