Zum Wochenende: Wie die Document Foundation ihre eigenen Gründer vor die Tür setzte - GNU/Linux.ch
https://gnulinux.ch/libreoffice-am-abgrund

de nieuwe toepassing in @protonmail en @ProtonDrive #Docs en #Sheets zijn in feite microsoft clones van #word en #excel

maar geen #odf en #ods ondersteuning‼️

documenten en spreadsheets uit bijvoorbeeld @libreoffice en #openoffice zijn niet in te lezen in Proton - die moeten eerst geconverteerd worden naar word en excel formats - - hmmmm, niet goed

en dat voor een Zwitsers bedrijf - -
en dat in een tijd waar soevereiniteit een #hotitem is - -
en dat is niet plotseling vandaag actueel - -
dit speelt al jaren - -

@Das_blaue_Pony 2/2 Hat man sich von TDF vorher Gedanken gemacht. Viele ist noch in Erinnerung wie es mit #OpenOffice verlaufen ist. Damals sind die Entwickler zu #LO gewechselt. Diese "Angst" schadet nicht nur dem freien Office, auch kommt als Antwort von TDF keine Reaktion. Das im Gremium keine Entwickler mehr sitzen wird auch nicht eingegangen. Für mich sieht das nach keinen plan aus. Colla. steht zumindest aus meiner Sicht besser da - was die Berichterstattung und Deutungshoheit an geht.

Sieht so aus, als stünde meinem Lieblings-Officepaket harter Seegang bevor – mit halbleerem Maschinenraum.

#LibreOffice #Collabora #CODA #OpenOffice

Was it really 15 years ago that the majority of the OpenOffice community voted with their feet against Oracle? Forking the software as LibreOffice, and forming the Document Foundation as a vendor-neutral stewardship body for this office software commons;

Like the forking of OwnCloud as NextCloud, a reminder that poor Free Code stewards can be forked around (looking at you Mozilla and Android/Linux).

So, suffice it to say that I need recommendations. If there are #Blind #ScreenReader users out there who work with #OpenDocument Format files using your #iOS or #Android devices, I would love to know what works for you and what I should be doing. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Har installert #gnumeric , men også #onlyoffice for å teste ut ulike alternativer.

Har også brukt #libreoffice og #openoffice.

Har ikke funnet noe som ikke gjør at jeg ikke kan bruke det ene eller det andre - jeg er ikke så avansert på hjemmebane på kontor applikasjoner. Trenger å kunne føre budsjett, skrive et brev, kanskje lage en presentasjon i ny og ne.

Det viktigste er at formatet er universalt og kan åpnes overalt. Resten blir subjektivt og hva man liker best.

I know it is silly, but sometimes I yearn to go back to #Corel #WordPerfect. I've used #LibreOffice since it forked from #OpenOffice, but WordPerfect still to this day can be purchased once and just used. It's the way professional software should be sold. Not to corpo-simp or anything, but still. Software developers gotta make money and that seems like the ethical way to do it, generally.

Ah, yes, the open-office utopia—where privacy goes to die and #productivity is sacrificed at the altar of architectural genius. Who needs doors, right? 🚪 Let those history lessons and awkward coughs mingle freely like it's an intellectual mixer for the ages. 😂🔇

Whenever I see people talking about LIbreOffice, I think back to the early days of GNOME of AbiWord and Gnumeric.

While they didn't have all the bells and whistles of LibreOffice, they were a delight to use- fast, easy, and I'd say they were fun too.

Yes, StarOffice was functional and powerful, it was never really *fun*. While I'm glad it was freed and made into OpenOffice, then LibreOffice, I wish the simpler tools had persisted.

#LibreOffice

The #free and #private office suite is a powerful, free and private office suite the successor project to #OpenOffice used by people around the world. It's #compatible with Microsoft Office (#365) and is backed by a non-profit organization, The Document Foundation. LibreOffice includes Writer (word processing), Calc (#spreadsheets), Impress (presentations), Draw (vector graphics and #flowcharts), Base (#databases), and Math (formula editing).

Want to make everyone else in your #OpenPlan office hate you? Be a group of 3-4 who have decided to all cluster around one person's computer to have a video call with someone. So that you need to speak out loud for the remote person to hear you, and you've got the computer's speakers up so you can all hear that person.

So that *all of us* can — and *must* — hear all of you.😠

Seriously. Get a room. One of those little rooms that are *just for this purpose*.

#OpenOfficesSuck #OpenOffice #office

Solo uso #LibreOffice por falta de alternativas. Ahora está tan hinchado y engorroso que no es muy divertido trabajar con él. También me molesta que los componentes superfluos #Base, #Impress, #Draw y #Math, es decir, 2/3 de los programas, siempre se instalen automáticamente.

No, #OpenOffice es igual en verde. Incluso compré una licencia para #SoftMaker una vez, pero cuando cambiaron a la tontería Microsoft Ribbon, salió volando de mi computadora. No usaré Chinese Office en mi PC y #gnumeric se desvía demasiado del estándar y modifica masivamente las tablas existentes. Y #Calligra también es solo un paquete completo en el que ya perdí interés de antemano.

Es una pena que aquí no se reconozca la necesidad de productos individuales especializados.

I only use #LibreOffice for lack of alternatives. It's now so bloated and cumbersome that it's not much fun to work with. I'm also annoyed that the superfluous components #Base, #Impress, #Draw and #Math, i.e. 2/3 of the programs, are always installed automatically.

No, #OpenOffice is the same in green. I even bought a license for #SoftMaker once, but when they switched to the Microsoft Ribbon nonsense, it flew off my computer. I won't be using the Chinese Office on my PC and #gnumeric deviates too much from the standard and massively modifies existing tables. And #Calligra is also just a complete package that I've already lost interest in beforehand.

It's a shame that the need for specialized individual products is not recognized here.

Ich nutze #LibreOffice ja nur noch aus Mangel an Alternativen. Es ist inzwischen so aufgebläht und behäbig, dass die Arbeit damit wenig Freude bereitet. Zudem ärgert mich, dass die überflüssigen Komponenten #Base, #Impress, #Draw und #Math, also 2/3 der Programme, stets automatisch mitinstalliert werden.

Nein, #OpenOffice ist das gleiche in grün. Für #SoftMaker hatte ich sogar mal eine Lizenz gekauft, aber als man dort auf den Microsoft Ribbon Schwachsinn wechselte, flog es vom Rechner. Das chinesische Office kommt mir nicht auf den PC und #gnumeric weicht zu sehr vom Standard ab und baut vorhandene Tabellen massiv um. Und #Calligra ist auch nur ein komplettes Paket, wo mir die Lust schon im Vorwege vergangen ist.

Schade, dass hier der Bedarf für spezialisierte Einzelprodukte nicht erkannt wird.
