Free with premium features doesn't really work economically. Or you could pay a L.O. dev to add them instead of sending money to the cloud?

Personally, a decade behind is ok with me... I was happy with Office '97, and was actually fine with the earlier ones, but that is the first I remember that were 32-bit.

The only thing I wanted for a friend was "outline mode" in the word processor, and I think it has finally been implemented.




That's not what I said though, paid support and paying them to host and manage it for you is not paid features. The features remain the same.

I tried to use it but the few times i personally needed it, it was to edit resumes and other formal stuff for people who need it in docx format and the result looked very unpleasing. Vice versa too, opening documents others send from the latest O365 is a pain.


Should never send a resume in doc format. They ask for it so they can edit it behind your back. Used to be .pdf was for that and LO supports it nicely.

However, pdfs are trivially edited today as well. Perhaps need to start sending with a hash or using code signing!
