I was so startled to find LibreOffice Calc, the Excel-alike, had completely different keyboard shortcuts than Excel, completely messing with my muscle memory every. Single. Time. How are businesses supposed to adapt when they need to factor in the time loss for every Excel-using employee to learn the arbitrary new control scheme?
Just request Libre Office Calc to be able to import Excel shortcuts.
Been using it just fine on my Desktop. Blender 3D and Krita are equally as good, and in some cases better, than the subscription based programs. Libre Office has the same functionality as MS Word, but supports more formats. Every other daily use program, such as Firefox or VLC runs just as fine on Linux as it does anywhere else. I've had virtually no issues running games from my Steam library, even ones that aren't officially supported.
IDK man, I've been using it exclusively on my main desktop at home and I've been getting along just fine with those "not particularly good" applications.
