From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Actually Office on Wine is in a pretty usable state so maybe you could give it a try. What does not work (or didn't work the last time I tried, like 2 years ago), was the connection to OneDrive and stuff. So you couldn't work collaboratively.
But otherwise everything worked just fine, just as it did on Windows. One more caveat though, VBA is not available in Excel, in case you need that.
Okay, maybe I’ll try that too
All other Linux native solutions didn’t seem to work for me
By the way, is there any tutorials or something that you’ve followed during your installation?
