    I don't particularly see the problem with Libre office. But then they talk about collaboration and we've had that in the form of wikis for over 20 years, so I struggle to think what else this, as yet undefined, new thing needs to do.

    I'm kind of surprised they're thinking in terms of software rather than file formats though. Software choice is a good thing. Lock in to a file format, even if technically open, isn't a good thing.

    I like the article, but knowing they sell a polished plain text editor for 50 bucks makes the final conclusion less powerful.

    I like iA Writer, but I don't think distraction free writing will solve our office problems.

    PS: Also, fuck their AI bullshit, slop engine integration is so disgusting, I can't believe I've paid for this shit.

      I thought their nod to what they sell was extremely subtle. And I also don't think they'd seriously propose iA Writer as THE office solution for governments. That would be delusional.
