    Onlyoffice and libreoffice’s interfaces are night and day. Libreoffice gives more control though.

          I imagine Onlyoffice’s settings menu is better (I’m not a fan of Libreoffice’s settings), but for average use, what areas does Onlyoffice do better UX-wise? I believe Onlyoffice is better at handling microsoft office documents, but hopefully that will become less relevant with this movement to get away from US products.

            I said this in another thread - but not feel like a java app with 40 years of baggage, for one.

              As someone who only used Onlyoffice briefly, to me they both seemed to do the same tasks about as well as each other. I didn’t notice Libreoffice’s age except in the settings menu. For actually just doing normal stuff, like word processing, it felt comparable, besides some minor stylistic UI polish in Onlyoffice.

              Are there any specific pain points in Libreoffice that you can recall that Onlyoffice does significantly better in?
