How would Fediverse instances deal with a net split? I assume local content would continue as normal, but federated posts would queue up until a route became available?

Could a server admin run a low bandwidth satellite link (for example) to reach a federated server, and thus the federated content would be amplified back to local reachable instance?

LibreOffice downloads on the rise as users look to avoid subscription costs | The free open-source Microsoft Office alternative is being downloaded by nearly 1 million users a week in c/technology@lemmy.world

Is it the best free option? It works fairly well although I can still kill it sometimes.

I know there's a few other alternatives like OnlyOffice, wps office etc but these might be freemium.
