Is there anyone in the open source office suite space that has their shit together?
I was looking for alternatives now that I'm committed to migrating away from Microsoft, and it feels like moving from one room where everything's on fire to... another room where everything's also on fire.

It's kind of a miracle if anything in the open source space isn't on fire. The benefit of closed-source is you get to bite the bullet once, have the same issues and get told the same workarounds as everybody else. But to your original question: LibreOffice still works all right for desktop editing, and if the OpenOffice debacle from many years ago is an indicator, it'll probably still keep running with marginal updates until the heat death of the universe

LO works fine, it won't suddenly stop because of this. But it may gradually decline, that's to be seen... I'll stick with LO for now.
