I’ve been using it for years for all personal office suite uses.

Along with GIMP for photo editing

I use collabora, which is essentially an online webUI implementation of libreoffice that can integrate with nextcloud, which I self-host.

All the benefits of an online office suite, all on my own hardware.

I use LibreOffice! Calc, Draw, and Writer are very user friendly once you get used to where the tools are. Impress is a pretty good replacement for Powerpoint: the stock graphics leave a lot to be desired–but that’s a simple fix with a good stock image service. About the only thing LO doesn’t do is notes, but I’d check out Xournal++ if you were looking for a way to replace OneNote. Plus, LibreOffice doesn’t push OneDrive down your throat. It’s been a win-win for me.

Another thing to consider if you really like typesetting is to learn LaTeX: it’s a slightly steep learning curve(especially for advanced topics), but it’ll do things that your typical WYSIWYG word-processing suite couldn’t dream of doing. Plus there are a lot of templates available that you can adapt for your purposes.

Yes. I’ve been using it since the old OpenOffice days. It works well, it’s easy to learn, it’s well supported, and it’s free.

I juggle between whatever office suite is installed at the time. I’ve found that they’re all pretty much the same. If you know one, the rest are virtually the same.

I use nothing else, unless my employer forces me to use MS office, offline. No online documents here, you never know when they sell your data…

I have been using it forever. I love it, and usually install it for friends and family members. Drive is fine, but they are indexing and reading your data, and I prefer to own my software.

Used LIbreOffice throughout college. I use it when I need to, though I don’t use any office productivity apps beyond a spreadsheet these days. When I DO need something like that, I Just use the LibreOffice integrated into Nextcloud.

Well, I have a license for MS Office from work that I have never actually installed, because Libre Office is just much simpler to deal with. I’m sure at some point I will need it, but since WFH started there has been no such time.

Honestly, I have no idea how people can stand MS Word. It’s a complete piece of shit that barely works. If you want it for a text editor, you will have a much better experience with any other suite. But Excel is good, and Power Point does that thing it does quite well (if that’s a good thing, it’s up to opinion). Those are harder to replace.

I prefer OnlyOffice over LibreOffice cause it seems to have better support for MS formats.

I use LibreOffice to fill out important documents and taxes. I don’t trust google, or myself for that matter, to hold that kind of data securely in the cloud without encryption.

I used OpenOffice and then LibreOffice all the way through college. However in the past couple years I moved to a combination of Office 365 and VSCode because I used the OneDrive cloud storage which comes at a pretty solid discount.

I used to use it for all my office needs, then Google docs got really good!

I think owncloud/nextcloud use libreoffice code for their collaborative office suites behind the scenes.

I use on Windows, bc It has regex, a huge thing for me.

For me, yes, and not just for personal or academic use. I’ve created and editted countless business documents with it. I’ve gotten at least four jobs with the resume I wrote with it.
