There is ONE THING and one thing only that i was missing switching away from #ubuntu to #rockyLinux and #Debian . The vertical task bar i really loved . That's why #KDE #plasma is my choice, after it became impossible within #GNOME to have that. So THANKS KDE !! โค๏ธ I would be really really sad without you :3

Exactly ๐
Indeed, a simple #Gnome office suite on basis of #LibreOfficeKit is probably the lowest hanging fruit to create an office suite. LibreOfficeKit is very powerful and is continuously further developed as it's the main engine of @collabora Online.
It has full document fidelity, so even if Gnome office would have few features, it would still be able to open/import/save/export/display all features. It's a pity that no one has tackled it yet.
I don't get it. I think that's a waste of resources. Why don't work on a better UI integration of #LibreOffice into #GNOME? LibreOffice is so customizable. The first thing I do after an installation is to make my toolbar simple and remove everything I don't need. I think it would be better to improve LibreOffice than build another office suite that hardly anybody uses in the end...
I wish someone could create a fast, simple, and easy-to-use #Gnome office based on #LibreOffice Kit.
This doesn't seem to be complicated wiht #libreofficekit and has full access to all LibreOffice technology features.

I use the middle click paste all the time, and I would miss it. Since I use Plasma, Iโm sure there would be a setting to turn it back on. Maybe there already is?
The middle click paste doesnโt use the same Clipboard as Ctrl-C, does it? It doesnโt seem to, but Iโve never really looked into it.
Your thoughts on these proposals? ๐คจ

Yes, we need a lightweight alternative to #LibreOffice that integrates with the #Gnome desktop. However, we don't need a new office core, just a slim UI. #LibreOfficeKit is slim and extremely powerful. All documents supported by @libreoffice are displayed correctly immediately. @CollaboraOffice Onlline, iOS, Android uses it. @tdforg has already developed a prototype โ#GTK Tiled Viewerโ dev.blog.documentfoundation.orโฆ.
