There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time.
(lemmy.world)
I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.
But there is no good drop in replacement.
I had faced all sorts of issues with compatibility of files while using LibreOffice. And LibreOffice looks ugly. OnlyOffice doesn't support doc/xls/ppt files afaik.
LibreOffice Writer follows Open Document Format, unlike MS Office Word. This is intentional by MS, because they have significant market share. So, any broken files is "because of LibreOffice", even though the inverse is true.
So, I consider Office Word to be a dangerous and harmful product, and I'm glad that it isn't available on Linux/Wine. It just isn't good, and LibreOffice works for 99.9% of what people use that kind of software for.
But sadly 99% of people use this broken version of software.
True. Governments and respective institutions should however not. Some countries understand this. Other have had their ISO standard committees bought out by MS in more than shady circumstances. I remember when this was discussed in Norway. Everyone in the panel concluded to use ODF. They were ignored. They all resigned.
Yeah. Classic corporate bulldozing everything!
