Summarizing video showing MS’ horrible practicies regarding Office 365’s subscription tiers, where they basically forcefully upgrade you to a higher tier subscription, and at the same time renaming the tier names so you won’t notice…

    I’ve dropped Microsoft Office for OnlyOffice and so far I have no regrets. The one issues it has, on MacOS only, is that it does not support multiple windows. There is a workaround using the command line I believe. Otherwise it is very good and the formulas are basically 1:1 with Excel.

        The UI, LibreOffice looks like it’s stuck in 2007, OnlyOffice has basically the same UI as Microsoft Office. I know that’s a negative for a lot of people but it’s what I’m used to already.

      I just use the apps (pages, keynote, numbers) that come with MacOS. They can open and save office formats, and gets the job done for everyday stuff. Not for the power user, but most people aren’t. Also, keynote is better than PowerPoint.

        I use pages and keynotes actually, I just really really don’t like numbers. I used it for a while and I really couldn’t get used to it.
