The 90s are calling, they want their UX back.
You can make it look however you want.
For me I’ve been using it for a long while now so the default layout feels right.
You can change it to ribbon-style in view > user interface of you want
Instead of thinking of the 90s UI as dated market it as retro and watch hipsters laud it for its classic feel.
Also, there are 7 different UI options to choose from. Maybe try those out and find one that fits you.
What’s wrong with the 90s UX? It lets you do your work without being intrusive or annoying, so what’s wrong with it?
Sorry but a word processor that doesn’t trigger a 9 second laggy animation with every button press is just simply unusable
the tabbed UI is way better, much easier to find stuff if you havent already memorized it.
i know libreoffice has it but it should 100% be the default instead of the ancient paradigm of just throwing a million unorganized buttons in there and hoping you remember where everything is.
90s UIs are dying for a good reason.
So, the problem is that people doesn’t have a working memory anymore, is that so?
not really, people just wanna use it for the work they are using that software for, not navigating a bad ui
It’s not popular in the mainstream, that’s what’s wrong’s with it
I was astonished to find the other day that LibreOffice has no problem opening ClarisWorks files. That is an ancient Mac format that even Apple’s Pages has long since abandoned.
Libre office or open office, what do you guys think? I’ve used both from time to time.
Open office has been dead for years now. The core team moved to Libre Office
OnlyOffice is the main alternative to Libre these days.
I personally prefer it because offers better compatibility with the Microsoft 365 documents I need for work.
It saddens me that the best to have compatibility is to never touch MS Office. They are the largest player by far. Subtly fucking up or deviating from open document standards will always be seen as “well, the issue is non MS office”.
Is there a LibreOffice-like-thing for Android?
Collabora Office, but it can lag at times.
