Can everyone (Microsoft, LibreOffice, Euro-Office, Apple) just come together and use one standard format?
I appreciate that everyone is turning around and saying, "but our format is better! Use our format!" but it just seems a bit pointless.
I just want to read and edit a document, for goodness sake...part of the reason I try and avoid the documents that people share is because it's too much of a headache. I don't care if you use Windows, Mac or Linux, but if I can't read the damned thing because of your preference I'm going to reply saying, "I can't open that and I'm not buying a new computer to read a 2 page document."
I noticed this was already happening within my organization; my teams location will change between remote and on-site without me having to do anything. Is it possible this is live already for select customers?
While LibreOffice is not pleased to see a new competitor, they are absolutely correct in stating that Euro-Office using a MS file standard as a default is not being truly "European." Using a MS standard just means Euro-Office is just a "bastardized MS Office Suite." (Wasn't a major purpose of Euro-Office was to get away from being captive and enslaved to MS's Office Suite??)
Microsoft continues its long-term policy of spying on their users--despite vehement denials. That feature will be disabled (or removed) either "elegantly" with MS providing a true way to disable it, or "quick and dirty" via a third-party who WILL come up with a way to disable it. Your choice MS...
