Is it bad that I stopped using Google docs and plan on moving to OpenOffice instead?

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'd recommend libreoffice, because oracle also kinda sucks.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Kinda?

I view Oracle as worse than Google.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Worse but less powerful

[–] FlyingCrow@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Why would that be bad?

[–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Open office. Or libre office. Also. Don't give Google your data like that bro
