I really like libreoffice honestly. In my job I have to use docs but I find myself copying from libre office most of the time. Prior to that, I used to create all my visuals with office and do my graphs in excel. So I’ve tried a few different ways to do things. Libre reminds me of old school products and I kind of like that. Plus it does what I want with shapes. Which is nice when I need to make visuals. I still use excel though, for now.

I was hoping your last sentence was a replacement for Excel. I use Excel to maintain the books for my business. I've built a really nice book for keeping track. The thought of migrating it to something where certain functions may not work keeps me paying my subscription fees.

How much do you pay? Maybe you can pay someone to write you a custom program to do those things. Maybe in libre office, or python, or some other language with gui and plots.

What is it, $100 a year for office? Been a long time, don't even think about it anymore.

In that case you can probably find someone for $100-200 that'll check your excel logic and make sure it works on libre office. Or python script
