    I kinda curious since I’ve been using it for my meager spreadsheet use for over ten years.

    What sucks about it to you?

      It feels like a less useful Office 97 variant.

      With modern UI/UX, it’s just clunky and old. Like, Google spreadsheets is works… better. Some things that I do in excel can’t really transfer over that easily (don’t have any examples off the top of my head sorry)

      The PowerPoint variant is the WORST offense though.

      It’s like having to maintain two different skillsets that are 85% similar.

        So is it just the UI or the actual functionality? I know the deep deep functionality probably isn’t there but I want to know how deep you have to go.

        You can also change the UI to have the ribbon. It doesn’t do it by default because I think they’re worried about legality.

        I don’t remember specific examples but the answer is formulas. Google Sheets lacks a lot of the “advanced” non-math formulas.

          LibreOffice’s drop down menus frequently have a delay after clicking them before anything happens. IMO not acceptable.

          Edit: Even on Windows I meant to say.
