    You’re not wrong, and I’m upvoting everything you say because I hate the smug SO people who ask why instead of actually trying to help.

    Yeah, I hate those people too. I appreciate the support.

    But in this specific case, there’s literally no reason to use OpenOffice, it’s discontinued. People shouldn’t have to explain how to use a defunct software with an addendum.

    It’s not an obscure programming language with an edge case, it’s a word processor.

    I can see where you’re coming from. Still, I personally try to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume until demonstrated otherwise that they have considered alternatives and decided their current program is best for their particular usecase.

    Is it naïve? Possibly. I fully admit that possibility.
