@avon_deer @aetus @kkarhan Use whatever works for you! Just note that OpenOffice has problems getting security fixes on time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OpenOffice#Security – So to be secure, there's LibreOffice, which is actively developed and maintained.

  Apache OpenOffice
  
  Apache OpenOffice (AOO) is an open-source office productivity software suite. It is one of the successor projects of OpenOffice.org and the designated successor of IBM Lotus Symphony. It was a close cousin of LibreOffice, Collabora Online and NeoOffice in 2014.

It can also read and write a wide variety of other file formats, with particular attention to those from Microsoft Office – although, unlike LibreOffice, it cannot save documents in Microsoft's post-2007 Office Open XML formats, but only import them.Apache OpenOffice is developed for Linux, macOS and Windows, with ports to other operating systems. It is distributed under the Apache-2.0 license. The first release was version 3.4.0, on 8 May 2012. The most recent significant feature release was version 4.1, which was made available in 2014.

  LibreOffice is the newest iteration of OpenOffice, eh? I might just give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

  @aetus Consider trying out @libreoffice / #LibreOffice, #Okular, #PDFarranger & @mozilla #Firefox then?
  You can even donate to #FLOSS and I'd suggest you donate the equivalent of their #CCSS counterparts' #subscription.
  #WorksForMe for > 10 years now and I'm considering to get an actual #Support #Subscription for @ubuntu since that's a convenient option and I do rely on #Ubuntu LTS for work.

  There was a time when I loved working by computer. But apps are so dodgy it's hard to get anything done reliably. MS Word constantly flashes extraneous page thumbnails & bits of garbage as I compose. Warns me it can't sync with cloud then it can. So distracting. Adobe rushes out updates that mess up so bad I spend a day fixing it. Chrome & any apps relying on it crash continuously. Can I go back to buying software & have it run w/o the cloud. I hate this future. #technology #rant
