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.

Cryptpad is not an alternative, it can't edit odt or doc format. You can export to doc format. The is no support for odp format even export.

If we are doing online and non free, just use office365 or Google docs. At least your project mates won’t hate you.

This is the definition of clickbait, bullshit articles... they didn't even bother to take their own screenshots of the suggested alternatives. I also don't really know what's the point of this article, Linux users know what's out there and although I dislike LibreOffice and have strong thoughts about it it is vastly superior to the other alternatives suggested to the point said alternatives aren't really alternatives.

Also, Cryptpad? Fucks sake.
