Winapps for work stuff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Qemu/kvm is the default way of running a VM on Linux. Virtualbox or winapps or vmware are secondary options.
Onlyoffice is a newer kid on the block compared to libreoffice/openoffice. Yes, it's web based but it operates as if its a native app. It works well, and it has very good Ms office compatibility. So definitely download its .appimage and try it out. You don't lose anything to try it out. It's super easy to run: you download the appimage, you right click on the file to go to its properties and make it executable, and then you can run it. Test it with your files to make sure it supports them well.
It also has a Flatpak release, which I prefer for the ability to restrict permissions like internet.
Fair enough. Thanks for the info.
