    Libreoffice their latest blogpost is from the 20th of August 2025. There have been a few releases in the past few months as well.

    Openoffice their latest ( Apache Openoffice 4.1.15 ) was released almost 2 years ago ( December 2023 ).

    Libreoffice seems like a more recent, better supported tool over Openoffice which hasn’t seen any updates since 2023 according to their own website.

    I’m on my phone, so I didn’t search extensively. But I think that also plays a role in why there’s a much larger fanbase for libreoffice rather than Openoffice.

    I’ve no recent experience with either so I can’t comment on how well either works.

    Edit: I looked up the wrong one. My statement remains correct w.r.t. Openoffice, but they mentioned Onlyoffice which is a different product.

      I believe Open Office and Only Office are different products.

      Only Office had a major release in June, 2025.

      And you are correct that Open Office last update was back in December 2023.

        You are correct. I misread ( or my brain farted ) and looked up the wrong one.
