I use Libre Office personally, and I know people who use Google Docs

Libre Docs is perfectly a okay except for some diff shortcut keys

Libre Sheets has some user unfriendly control issues, some very basic. Some advanced formulae not there. So I foresee difficulty if I have to use it

Also Libre in general is quite inefficient in memory use

I would use Google Docs except the offline mode a bit topkek

However the kicker is that my new laptop has free MS Word and Excel for life again, so I just switch back to MS in the end

I dunno. Just take it as it comes I guess.

Office 2019 standalone? Else I find it hard to believe can have free for life as Office 365 subscription based.

Gomen staff use StarOffice / OpenOffice.

Given their skill level as evidenced by COVID-19 announcements and charts, I guess that's fine.
After all, they can't even be bothered to hide the auto-correct red underlining in their presentation for almost a year now.

Cool, most of the new laptops I see come with Office 365 with limited functionality.
