OnlyOffice if you want an editor similar to Word. I switched to it also because LibreOffice's UI bugged out and I didn't see any buttons.

Thanks! I'm trying it out and see if it meets my meager needs for home use office type software. It seems lighter weight than LibreOffice.

I like to think that LibreOffice is a great alternative to those used to 2003 and older MS Office, and OnlyOffice is a good alternative to those used to post-2003 MS Office.
