Just putting this out there... a few days ago I needed to do the "monthly" clean up (after three months) so while I was making a backup of our centrally-stored data on the old Linux desktop, I let #Ucheck do its thing on our two Windows laptops, then finished off with a quick Microsoft Store update, CCleaner registry clean and ShutUpWin safety check. Imagine my utter shock, therefore, when I went to edit an ODS spreadsheet yesterday and was confronted with EXCEL instead of #LibreOffice !!! Unless Ucheck did it deliberately (seems unlikely) something in Windows Update or WinGet actually *uninstalled #LibreOffice * then *installed #Microsoft365 / #MicrosoftOffice instead*! It happened on both Windows laptops. That is flabbergastingly low even for #Microsoft... I checked around and there were a couple of other people who complained about the exact same thing over the years...

The Document Foundation says #Microsoft's file formats keep users on a short leash #OOXML may carry an ISO certificate, but only #MicrosoftOffice can be trusted to render it properly "The practical effect is that the format used daily by hundreds of millions of people is the one that only Microsoft's own software implements correctly, whilst the cleaner variant – which other software could actually support – is not used, and has now even disappeared from some versions." https://www.theregister.com/applications/2026/07/20/the-document-foundation-says-microsofts-file-formats-keep-users-on-a-short-leash/5274960

I switched from Chrome to Vivaldi 3 months ago. But I only discovered Web Panels this week. OMG, they are _amazing_! It just so happens that I built the perfect thing for such a sidebar 1 year ago: my OFFI[dot]CEO alternative to the Microsoft Office home page that MS decided to redirect to M365 Copilot instead. Just add this URL to your panel and configure the settings as you wish: https://offi.ceo #MicrosoftOffice #Microsoft365 #Copilot #Vivaldi #Vivaldi_browser
