It’s for my mother, who so far cannot stand LibreOffice.

    Onlyoffice is pretty usable, better than libreoffice. The company behind it is Russian, though, so better not use it if you deal with any kind of sensitive information in a western country (that includes stuff like business administration!).

    You can also try the common activation scripts or manually configure vlmcsd. Or just use the free online stuff like Google Docs or Office Online.

        The company is Latvian, but the Latvian company used to be owned by a Russian company. Right now, the company is owned by a British she’ll company, owned by a Singaporean holding. Fort a short while, the British company was owned by someone acting as a corporate advisor in Uzbekistan.

        Legally speaking, they’re not Russian, but I find it hard to believe they’ve actually severed ties. I believe they changed their business structure to avoid EU sanctions. This could just be your basic corporate tax evasion as well, but i haven’t seen a tax evasion scheme like this in open source software before.
