From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Idk, LibreOffice UI seems pretty decent for me.
It's this the new UI? It's been a while since I use LibreOffice and the UI was worse than office 2003.
It's not a default but I just changed it to tabbed view in the settings, picked Sifr icons in the settings, and installed adw-gtk3 theme on GNOME which makes gtk3 apps blend more with the default libadwaita GNOME theme.
It's actually not bad! Thanks!

Neat, the customization does help make it look a lot better than the defaults. I wonder why they didn't just make this the new UI.
Actually my dad prefer the default UI. But he used Windows 95 and the office suite that goes with it for a long time, so his habits are hard to loose.
I'm impressed by how they were able to make a worse ribbon interface than Microsoft itself.
