@libreoffice oh yeah, might do. Had a hell of a time trying to turn off “overwrite” mode.
Random dialogue box came up while exhausted and migrainey, closed it without reading, overtype going weird…
There’s a bit of the status bar at the bottom that says input or overwrite or something. It’s literally just you click that to fix it, omg.

Now, I may translate this into Corporate Documentation Speak for your help files later.

@libreoffice omg I couldn’t find it!
Huh. The help page the menu link took me to looked different, I swear.
I’ll try on desktop later to check

@libreoffice I'll gladly join the Month of #LibreOffice 😃. I've been using it for years, both private and for work. And guess what, I'm good even when working with MS-using colleagues.

Even my grandpa uses it happily. It took him years to realise it's not MS Office, because it worked just as well. If he can manage it, anyone can.

So why I love it? It does what it needs to do and does it well, and it's #free and #opensource, and actively developed and improved. What more can you need?

@libreoffice I was going to read the blog post, but the font is miniscule. Really, really tiny.
