Nextcloud and Ionos are promising a modern, open-source office suite for the summer. To achieve this goal, they have forked OnlyOffice.

    Nextcloud and Ionos justify the decision for the Only-Office fork with its more modern architecture and code base compared to LibreOffice and its browser variant Collabora. „Libre Office is 35 years old and no longer the most innovative and fluid,“ said Nextcloud CEO Frank Karlitschek. „You can also notice that in the browser.“

    Am I the only one reading that as “we can’t add AI to LibreOffice, so out it is”?

    That sounds great! I love OnlyOffice, but it feels a bit iffy with their supposed connection to the Russian military. I hope this will be free for personal use.

      I hope this will be free for personal us

      As far as I know Only Office is licensed under AGPL, so any adaption they do, must be published the same way.

          Thank you for the links but they’re about OnlyOffice, in your other comment you said OpenOffice, that’s why I was confused.

    Do not use open office: https://forum.cryptpad.org/d/232-onlyoffice-concerns-vendor-makes-shady-moves Dedicated website: https://eviloffice.tutdomen.com/ Licensing problems: https://opensource.stackexchange.com/questions/9481/is-onlyoffice-restricting-our-freedom-with-their-faq-agpl-v3 (is not really open source?) and mobile clients going proprietary: https://www.reddit.com/r/NextCloud/comments/fktqug/onlyoffice_fcked_us/

    Libre office are a project that comply with open source licenses instead of stealing the work
