I know that Linux Mint has some older, stable packages for its software that aren't bleeding edge. However, is there any way to force it to update LibreOffice to the latest version? I suppose that means adding a repository, but I am unsure which one. #LinuxMint #LibreOffice

Millions of students are getting locked into closed, proprietary software from Big Tech vendors. Here's how #LibreOffice can give them back their digital sovereignty: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/03/06/libreoffice-for-education-regaining-digital-sovereignty/ #foss #openSource #freesoftware

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Glad to see the mention of #LibreOffice, which I've been using ever since it came out. One doesn't need to pay a subscription for a decent office suite. #opensource

So, I'm trying to switch over to #LibreOffice on a Windows 10 operating system, using the Portable version of LO, not the installed version, and my em dashes are not showing up as em dashes. I type, dash dash dash, altogether, and it still does not transform into a proper em dash. I tried to fix this with AutoCorrect, but even after I put the, * after it, it sill does not transform. Any ideas on how to make the AutoCorrect work? I'm also stunned at how much it crashes, Like, no really! Especially when I am editing AutoCorrect entries. It freezes and I am forced to close the program and then recover documents. I've also had it crash several times when editing a document---a lengthy blog post. Honestly? I hate Microsoft, but it's inhibiting behavior such as this that make me understand why people stick with Microsoft Word. I'm not giving up on LO by any means. I will just never badger someone using MS Word again, especially since I've seen how buggy LO is. On the bright side, LO is incredibly fast if I am just typing a messy first draft.

Es geht auch ohne #Microsoft — OSS Directory Digitale Souveränität: Behörden prüfen Alternativen zu Microsoft DER SPIEGEL berichtet, dass digitale Souveränität für europäische Verwaltungen zunehmend konkrete Realität wird. Statt sich dauerhaft auf Microsoft zu stützen, setzen erste Behörden auf #OpenSource Software wie #LibreOffice, #Linux :tux: oder #Nextcloud, um Daten, Infrastruktur und strategische Entscheidungen stärker selbst zu kontrollieren. https://www.ossdirectory.com/de/topnews/details/es-geht-auch-ohne-microsoft #DigitalSovereignty

Editor de texto no #terSoftware pra mim é #libreoffice writer. Tudo quanto há de recursos, até fazer QR code nativamente ele faz. (Muita gente usa sites aí o QR code vem com encurtadores bizarros que experiam e contém rastreadores)

Hat schonmal jemand mit #Libreoffice Base gearbeitet? Also das MS Access von Libreoffice. Ich möchte Daten, die sich täglich ändern über eine SST bei einem Anbieter im Internet einlesen. Und zwar immer alle Daten, die ich nich nicht eingelesen habe. Diese werden in der DB gespeichert. Also quasi historisiert. Daraus sollen dann zwei Mittelwerte über Zeit gebildet werden. Diese Daten möchte ich dann nach LO Calc exportieren und eine Grafik dieser drei Werte über die Zeit anzeigen lassen. Eine andere Lösung fällt mir dafür leider adhoc nicht ein als LO Base zu benutzen. Schöner wäre es natürlich das zu automatisieren. Immer zu einer bestimmten Uhrzeit an einem Tag die aktuellen Werte lesen und in eine DB speichern. Ich habe zwar einen Webspace im Netz, wo ich auch eine MySQL DB dabei habe zum Speichern. Da könnte ich dann mit PHP vielleicht was zurecht fummeln. Kenne ich aber beides nicht gut. Also weder PHP noch SQL. Aber ich kann da keine Skripte zeitlich triggern um Daten zu lesen.

#LibreOffice 26.8 alpha seems much happier since I installed a Java runtime environment for it to play with. :)

We hope you're enjoying the new features in #LibreOffice 26.2! Here's a look behind-the-scenes at what the developer and QA community did in January: https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2026/02/11/qa-dev-report-january-2026/ #foss #openSource #freesoftware

Sodale, jetzt habe ich #Libreoffice auf die Version 26.2 gebracht. Wichtig - zuerst das Language Pack de installieren, danach die Offline-Hilfe. Die Offline-Hilfe benötigt die Pakete um sich installieren zu können. #linux #opensource #libreoffice https://de.libreoffice.org/download/download/

@mcelhearn@journa.host If Apple's upsell strategy annoys you, you're probably better off switching to #Linux and using #LibreOffice. Free to use is not the same thing as "free" as in freedom.
