Hi. So my girlfriend wants to try out Linux (Elementary OS, she thinks it looks pretty) and needs my help setting everything up (she’s not that good at tech). I’ve never use Linux before. From what I’ve read MS Office is not supported on Linux, but there’s Libreoffice. My gf uses a lot of MS Office for high school (Word & Powerpoint mostly), so I’m curious if Libre is a good substitute? As in compatibility, features, etc.?

    Libreoffice present or whatever it’s called (powerpoint equivelent) is absolutely garbage imo, it’s missing a lot of functions to make stuff that doesn’t look straight out of 1990s

    The rest of them I found fine… though im definitely not a power user by any means, so mileage may vary
