Gestern beim Netzpolitischen Abend in Wien gab es einen Vortrag über die Umstellung vom Bundesheer auf @libreoffice@fosstodon.org. Ich hab gefragt, wie das finanziell ausschaut. Trotz, dass sie 7-8 Leute dafür beschäftigen, und für die initiale Umstellung auch Geld in die Hand nehmen mussten, haben sie jetzt schon gespart und die nächsten Jahre wird das nur noch mehr werden. Also erzählt das gerne weiter! Wenn ihr Leute nicht mit Unabhängigkeit als Argument erreichen könnt, dann vielleicht damit. Außerdem fließen die Verbesserungen, die sie machen, wieder in das Community-Projekt zurück, wirklich sehr toll! #SoftwareFreedom #FOSS #FLOSS #LibreOffice #DigitaleAutonomie #DigitaleSouveränität #NetzPAT #Bundesheer #Österreich #Verwaltung

An open letter to office suite users, just before the Euro-Office announcement - TDF Community Blog

Dear office suite users, In recent days you will have read various articles announcing the arrival of Euro-Office, which is being “marketed” as the first open-source office suite developed in Europe. We feel compelled — reluctantly, since open source should rest on transparency, not deception — to correct this claim. The first open-source office suite developed in Europe was OpenOffice.org in 2001, based on StarOffice’s source code, followed by LibreOffice from 2010. These are two genuine open-s

Reminder: #LibreOffice includes no AI features in the software. It doesn't rewrite your content, train algorithms, or share your data. There is zero AI functionality in the app. Regarding the use of LLMs in the development process, we have a strict policy about this: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/AI_policy – Contributors who use such tools must be able to explain EVERY changed line of code. We do not accept any "slop".

For the last decade, the #EU has been funding #Mastodon #KDE #Phosh #Nextcloud #OnlyOffice #PixelFed, #Libreoffice, #CryptPad, #Kdenlive, #Lemmy and many other Open Source projects you know and love through its #NextGenerationInternet programme. But now that programme is ending and they are thinking about its successor. They want to hear from you on what it should look like: Share your feedback to make sure the Commission keep funding amazing Open Source projects! [JM]

Lots of improvements coming to #LibreOffice: clearer font substitution, a button in Calc to list sheets, better hyphenation support, and more. See our QA and dev summary for September: https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2026/10/06/qa-dev-report-september-2026/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware

Today, we are celebrating sixteen years of LibreOffice's independence and commitment to supporting free software, open standards and digital sovereignty - TDF Community Blog

On 28 September 2010, a group of OpenOffice.org community members announced the launch of the LibreOffice project and the foundation that would support it: The Document Foundation. The announcement sparked some confusion and scepticism, as well as enormous enthusiasm amongst those in the community who believe in free and open-source software. 28 September 2010 acted as a litmus test, unequivocally separating the true supporters of free and open-source software from those who were opportunistical

I have 3 apps with support for spellcheck on my new install of Linux with Gnome: Zen (Firefox), Gnome Text Editor and LibreOffice. They have three different amounts of dictionaries I can choose from: 19, 0 and 1. Because of this I have to assume that they all download their own dictionaries. If I add a new word to the dictionary in one app it will not work in any other app. This is annoying! Would love to see work on shared dictionaries across all apps! #firefox #gnome #LibreOffice #linux

Just putting this out there... a few days ago I needed to do the "monthly" clean up (after three months) so while I was making a backup of our centrally-stored data on the old Linux desktop, I let #Ucheck do its thing on our two Windows laptops, then finished off with a quick Microsoft Store update, CCleaner registry clean and ShutUpWin safety check. Imagine my utter shock, therefore, when I went to edit an ODS spreadsheet yesterday and was confronted with EXCEL instead of #LibreOffice !!! Unless Ucheck did it deliberately (seems unlikely) something in Windows Update or WinGet actually *uninstalled #LibreOffice * then *installed #Microsoft365 / #MicrosoftOffice instead*! It happened on both Windows laptops. That is flabbergastingly low even for #Microsoft... I checked around and there were a couple of other people who complained about the exact same thing over the years...

Replying to
@kdkorte@fosstodon.org It's ideal even for 'self-employed' or 'single worker' enterprises. I switched to Linux and FOSS at home while I had an office job using Windows, MS Office, Adobe & Quark. So when my side-hustle became my job I was already familiar with all the software I needed, without spending a single penny. #Linux #LibreOffice #Inkscape #GIMP #Scribus #GnuCash #Firefox #Thunderbird

I really like #LibreOffice, and I like supporting #foss software (and I really really don't like microsoft). Write is great. Calc gets it done. #impress, however, is half functional and half a dumpster fire of anti-usability. So many basic things require half a dozen clicks or just can't be done in bulk, which means they often require literally hundreds of clicks in a presentation, while digging into menus over and over. Impress is going to give me RSI all by itself. I sometimes find references to far more usable options in previous versions, and that makes it even more frustrating. If you are here to tell me about a simple 13-step process to set up what should be available by default, I'm open to it but will forget it on other machines or when I upgrade this one. If you are here to make a comment that boils down to "so you hate open software?" or "So you would prefer Microsoft?" you will be blocked for lack of critical thinking and reading comprehension. #vent #frustration

LibreOffice 26.8 and the languages for which nobody is paid The most significant new features in LibreOffice 26.8 concern writing systems, and it is worth explaining what has been done and, above all, why it has been done, as there is an important decision behind the developers’ work. https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/09/15/lo-268-and-the-languages/ #libreoffice

The most significant new features in LibreOffice 26.8 concern writing systems, and it is worth explaining what has been done and, above all, why it has been done, as there is an important decision behind the developers’ work. What has been done Writer now automatically detects the paragraph direction when opening or pasting documents or plain text, without requiring the user to set it manually. Spaces at the end of a line are positioned according to the paragraph direction rather than that of ne

Whoa. @libreoffice@fosstodon.org unleashes “no AI as a feature” and breaks download records. “In one week, the installer was downloaded more than 1 million times — not counting updates via Linux distribution repositories.” Great work, LibreOffice team! 👏🏻 https://manualdousuario.net/en/libreoffice-download-record-no-ai #LibreOffice #FOSS #AI #Software #NoAIAsAFeature
