We still see people on social media recommending OpenOffice. Just be aware that it's no longer getting updates, and has multiple year-old unfixed security issues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OpenOffice#Security – To be safe, switch to one of the actively maintained successor projects (such as LibreOffice).

In our previous blog post 2025 Priorities: Reliability, Audio, Cameras and More, we asked "is there anything that you find terribly important that we have missed here?". And indeed, there was one thing that people would have liked us to focus more on, which is a better keyboard experience.
This was unbelievably great timing, because we are actually integrating a new keyboard with great new features!

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
