Excel, not true. I mean libreoffice calc just works for a lot but not for easy basic graphs. And it does not do the job better at graphically ebabling users to do data analysis

Wait what's the problem with graphs? I use it for basic graphs all the time.

Weird. For me some graphs didnt work and manipulating variables was veeery unintuitive (like "this is x" "this is y" "this is the scale"

My use cases were pretty simple so maybe you ran into issues with using more features idk.

Python and matplotlib aren't hard... Plus you get pandas, numpy, and so on. Alternatively, R studio does such stuff ootb, as far as I remember

Idk, excel always seemed unnecessarily limiting and complicated to me compared to proper programming languages. Although that may be because I was taught cpp before this crap.
