I try using Org-mode/Latex with pandoc, but end up using only Office for docx and PowerPoint.

    LibreOffice, I came for Linux support and PDF export… and stayed for the only Office that I know how to use 😄

    Libre Office user for over a decade, recently moved to OnlyOffice and liking it a lot so far. Seems to do better with MS formats than LibreOffice, snappy and responsive. UI is cleaner IMO.

    Libre is still good though.

    I’d say 95% Markdown + Pandoc for when I make documents. The other 5% is LibreOffice.

    When it comes time to make graphs and charts I really like wasting my time so I always try out something new (or old) to get the job done. Last time I used Pygal.

    When it comes to dealing with docs from colleagues, it is all LibreOffice and Zathura.

    I’m quite happy with libreoffice.

    It can be a piece of crap sometimes but less so than MS Office.

    With LO I have a passionate love-hate relationship.

    I typically use libreoffice, but if I ever have the time to learn latex I’ll switch, I’ve heard nothing but good things aside from the learning curve

    I use Markdown (very rarely LaTeX too) in Neovim, and LibreOffice for anything I can’t do in Markdown.

    Sometimes I’ll start up the MarkdownPreview plugin I have, but typically I don’t.

    If I need to share it, I’ll typically convert to PDF with pandoc or a random tool online if I can’t get pandoc to work the way I want it.

    LibreOffice from Flathub.

    But if I’m crafting a document from scratch, I use AbiWord, which has been my default WYSIWYG editor since 20 years ago. Most recently, I used it to type the contract I used to sell a house, and to start an LLC.

    Markdown for myself, Google Docs when I’m collaborating with others, and OnlyOffice after puking a little in my mouth for having received a docx or pptx by email.

    Usually OnlyOffice though I keep LibreOffice installed as a backup as sometimes I’ve had weird compatibility issues with the former (very few and far between but still)

    Mostly only need a spreadsheet. I will use anything at my disposal, but mostly Calc (LibreOffice).

    Most of my text editing is markdown or actual code, so that is just VSCode or my IDE.
