From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

LibreOffice UI is really... well... old. UX is really bad : it's on par with GIMP's ideology of "make it as hard as possible to get things done"
You know there are like 7 different layouts built in and you can create custom ones. You can even make it look like world if you like.
I disagree. I actually like the LibreOffice, non-tabbed, UI. It's a UI/UX that I'm used to from Office 2003 and honestly prefer. The 2007+ ribbon interface makes things harder for me to find.
Like I'm used to GIMP and can't do shit in photoshop. That doesn't mean the UX is good though, just that you got used to it and are not willing to change.
