https://www.libreoffice.org/ for anyone who wants microsoft to stop messing with their office apps.

I suppose this means Microsoft will not count Word doc file sizes against users' cloud storage quotas, right? Right??

This is certainly about making sure your files are safe and definitely not about stealing your data for training AI. /s

Don't let Murdersoft steal your data. Don't contribute to their corruption or genocide assistance.

Step 2: https://www.libreoffice.org/

Let's say this huge breach of security and privacy is okay.

How are Microsoft ensuring these sensitive documents are not being transferred via or stored on servers located in hostile countries with lax data laws (such as foreign nations like the USA?).

"Fuck you, Microsoft." -Everyone, at all times

Even if you're not ready to come to Linux, you're definitely ready to switch to LibreOffice. I dare you to try it.

No, I don't think they will. LibreOffice

To anyone thinking "LibreOffice still has issues", here's the LibreOffice donation page to help them fix it up and be rid of MS Office forever.

Not to be used to train AI. We promise...

You can turn it off. Opt-out is still bullshit.

L I B R E O F F I C E

LibreOffice. No need for MS Office, ever

How will this work for (for example) cibersecurity companies that have reports full of client's vulnerabilities and can't have them hosted in third parties?

Which means an AI scans it...

At this point that’s almost like ransomware.

Libre office does the job for me! Auto save on cloud sucks. At least you can turn it off! For now.

Holy fucking shit, what absolute trash

This feature doesn't even work.

So many times I'll save a word doc, attach it to outlook, and it'll silently attach an older version of the word doc.

Word says its up to date, one drive says its up to date, but outlook still gets an old version.

It takes hours to resolve. Everything Microsoft wastes so much of my time.

this is their patch for the whole disk data loss debacle

I still use Wordpad to write all my gay dinosaur erotica, am I safe?

This might be when I finally jump ship and go to Linux. I should do Mint, right?

If you mind that Word documents are stored in the cloud by default, you need to modify the default setting

...or just use some other app for your private documents and Word only for work-related stuff or such. I use Word/Office at work and have absolutely no issue with all the documentation being saved in the cloud. But for private stuff I would have to think twice if I want this.

I’d rather use old ass word perfect at this point

What if I'm using a pirated copy of windows and office?
