@libreoffice@fosstodon.org To be fair, odt is significantly larger than docx. Which I guess makes sense, since docx is zipped. I found this out when someone sent me a docx yesterday, and I made changes to it, and then saved it as an odt before sending it back to him (because I want to start exposing more people to odt, and MS Word opens those fine). I was shocked at the file size difference. So as an experiment, I saved my edits as a docx too, and confirmed it: the docx was like 20kb smaller than the odt. :/

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org Unfortunately, all too common. Fell for the OneNote trap and exported everything before I left the thing that allowed me to use OneNote actively... now I'm stuck using some other software on my Mac to use the OneNotes I exported. It is better than OneNote to a degree though.
