There is libre office, which is a great replacement for MS Office.
That's Microsoft to blame. Their so-called "open" OOXML document standard is so complicated that it's almost impossible to implement it, a very interesting read on the topic: https://tfir.io/never-use-microsofts-ooxml-pseudo-standard-format/
But I would say the Libre office should be good enough for 98% of the usage and you would hardly find any interoperability issues, due to the constant dedication of their developers who reverse engineered a lot of MS shenanigans.
Yes, the whole OOXML is one hot mess.
