@libreoffice
Ich würde sogar sagen, dass ihr nicht nur reduzieren, sondern alle Kommunikation dort stoppen solltet. -

A warm welcome to the Fediverse!

@libreoffice Don’t be surprised if you get a reprimand for that on X. And the question remains how many of your followers will see it there.
@Schimmelreiter @libreoffice i'm guessing they'll go with 'that's partially why' on both counts

@libreoffice I wanted to ask for years. Is there a simple edition of LibreOffice? "LibreOffice SE"
Or is there a way I can have all the options I don't use or don't understand thrown out?
I would like to pay, perhaps others too. Am happy to contribute a bit to a crowdfunding.

@libreoffice Welcome to Mastodon! Great to see the shift and continued commitment to open and community-driven platforms. Looking forward to your updates here

@libreoffice
Great decision!
We also decided/announced this in 03/2025. -

@oblomov @libreoffice it is objectively extremely funny
@eniko @oblomov @libreoffice That's what you get if you think picking truth.social as your home instance is a good idea
-
@apnoe_soeren @libreoffice not hoping that btw. did you read the comments? ooof.
@f4grx @libreoffice Most of them do not know about Mastodon. That's why.

@rl_dane @cameron_bosch @mcbaumwolle@mastodon.social @libreoffice oh this one is a laugh

@rrustema @libreoffice If I'm understanding this correctly (i.e. simplifying the interface) that's a real tricky thing to ask for. After all, different people need different parts of the interface. Stripping it back to the bare essentials will mean different things to each of those users.
However, the interface is highly customizable. There are a ton of options right there in the View menu, and if you select "User Interface" you can choose a preset that fits your wants/needs.

@rrustema @libreoffice Also, a hot tip - if you want a distraction-free writing experience in Writer, hit Ctrl+Shift+J to toggle full-screen mode. It hides absolutely everything and then it's just you and the words.

@mausmalone @libreoffice Different people need different things from the interface, I am sure. But surely there are more and less popular functions.
For the crowdfunding we can do a survey.
Already under the file menu. "Open Remote... " Why would I want to open a remote file? From where, when, how? I just want to write. Strike it, it is confusing. "Wizards... Fax" What? A time machine? "Wizards... Agenda" That is something else!
The list of crap that can be wielded is endless...
-
@libreoffice oh no, not the commie platform!
Great to have you here LibreOffice!
@kcweller I've heard this claim. by people who use an open source product. The cognitive dissonance is strong with these ones.

@libreoffice very cool

@ghouston @oblomov @libreoffice I do find it strange that there seems to just be this accepted wisdom that 'Mastodon is a usability nightmare'.. parroted widely, including by those who claim to love open source and have tried it. I just don't see it.
I don't think that people are lying?
You could argue that they "just" need to put in a bit more effort, but maybe it's best to find ways to further improve the user experience?
There's some really low hanging fruit, like https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/37690.

@libreoffice Took a glance how twitter reacted and decided to personally thank you for supporting FOSS.
People talking that there no audience on Mastodon? Lets boost, share and like and show how many different flavours of Fediverse exists!
Again thank you for giving option to ditch MS office and have portable options which helped me not once.

that «Mastodon is fascist social media» is really *chef kiss*
@oblomov @eniko @libreoffice I really wonder what the reasoning is. But not enough to ever go back to that site and ask
