    The fact that I switched is telling. I legit liked Windows up until 11 and only used Linux on laptops. Everything really did just work and the OS stayed out of my way, OneDrive+office for my whole family was $80/year, and every piece of software I wanted to use was built for it. I gave 11 a shot. I stuck with it a long time.

    Now my desktop runs all FOSS and the only thing I miss is Excel.

        Pales in comparison, unfortunately. That’s what I’m using now and it feels on par with Office 2007. If you want a specific example…data validation is a bit of a trainwreck. Unless something has changed recently, there is no way to see which cells have data validation applied

        But I should note that I’m an excel “power user” and LibreOffice will fit the bill for 99.5% of people.
