      the only problem with onlyoffice is that it’s electron.

        Chromium embedded framework, not electron. Similar concept, though.

        Ehh, I’m fairly sure it’s not. It certainly wasn’t in the past. When do you believe that changed?

        Never mind, you were talking about OO, not LO, my bad.

        Is this your first exposure to FOSS? If so, you are in for a treat. There’s a whole world of free, open source software out there for you to enjoy.

        Yeah, it’s 100% free.

        Free and open source, but if you’re willing to pay, you could donate to the project.

      I need to try onlyoffice again. The last time I tried, was the original beta, and it was faulty (being a first release beta, and all)

        Oh onlyoffice works great! It’s spreadsheet function is far less buggy than excel and it’s smooth and snappy.

          OnlyOffice spreadsheet has less functionality than Excel but unless you are a super power user then it’s not a problem.

      Onlyoffice is apparently Russian, headquartered in Latvia.

          JFC it can be russian owned and russian controlled and russian employed and pay russian taxes while “headquartered” in Latvia.

          Latvia is not Russia

          Yet.

          And if you look on a Russian map, I’m sure it’s there already.

          You know, almost entirely staffed by Russians (outside of Latvia), the executive suite is Russian, shareholders are Russian, etc.

          Like have you guys never heard of companies being “headquartered” in the Cayman Islands?

            Sure, now why would that be a factor for choosing a software or not.

            You didn’t choose the country you were born in anymore than they did.

                yes, very much

                if your only argument is the nationality of the people involved, it’s a bad one.

                  If you haven’t noticed there’s a war going on. This is the weirdest conversation I’ve had, at best you’re playing the fool. I’m out.
