        But the Mac isn’t the only platform so I’ll be driving user interface improvements and fixing annoying bugs everywhere else too, regardless of platform or visual backend. I also look forward to working with the LibreOffice Design community to try out new ideas and see what sticks.

    Meanwhile the state of the UI/UX on Linux: I dare you to rotate your paper in LibreOffice Writer to portrait landscape in under a minute, if you haven’t recently used the function.

      Layout > Orientation > Landscape (I presume you meant that since the default orientation is Portrait)

      Took me about 3 seconds.

        For me it was under Format - Page Style, burried in some long dropdown menu. It is absolutly not user friendly, if you are new to the software or don’t use it very often.

        I needed one minute to find it and I kind of knew what I was searching for (a window with all the settings for the page). The UI should be made in a way where the slowest user (apparently me) will find such essential functions fast, like in every other writing software (MS Office, OnlyOffice, Google shit, …).

        So for me the UI of LibreOffice is a bad one.
