    I found that Pages and Numbers work just fine for me at home, and it comes included with my Mac. And if I’m truly desperate, Google Docs and Sheets are always a viable alternative.

      Cool but if you handle complex documents with stuff like macros you’re straight out of luck. Even if you can get some compatibility you’re never going to be quite sure it will all work and look perfectly.

      This is how Microsoft keeps their position.

      Or if you’re not desperate open office/libre office forget the meta because I don’t fuck with docs outside of work these days

        True. I don’t spend as much time these days word processing as I used to, but I really should get around to downloading libre office.
