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 ‘#GTK Tiled Viewer’ dev.blog.documentfoundation.or…. I hope someone is interested in taking on the new @gnome office.

currently trying #raspbian with some Scratch, Python & #arduino projects on the horizon on my free time, with the objective to introduce all of it to my kids.

Still really satisfied with #linuxmint on my old laptop, I use mainly #libreoffice for my uni homeworks.

Maybe I’ll come back to #manjaro on my newest one with double booting cause it’s fun messing around. Also interested in #steamos. It’s going to be a busy year!


Thanks Brodie, I love this video! From the good old times a few years into working at #Canonical. #CUPS already used by every distro for several years, but not all apps sent jobs in PDF format yet, several, like OpenOffice (predecessor of #LibreOffice) still sent PostScript, standard of old #Unix times. And printers still needed drivers and some manufacturers made (usually closed-source) ones, and everyone with an integration more awkward than the other ...

Happy Tuesday!


The second release candidate of #LibreOffice 24.2 is now available! This will be our next major update, with a new "year.month" version scheme – so it'll arrive in February 2024. And it has a bunch of new features too, which you can help to test: qa.blog.documentfoundation.org… #foss #opensource
