Hi everyone! 👋 We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OpenOffice#Security – So if you see someone recommending it, please inform them about the risks – but also that there are actively maintained successor projects (like LibreOffice). #foss #OpenSource
Unfortunately, corporations have bastardized the term “open” (looking at you, OpenAI) trying to get the credit Open Source software has earned.
Libre was a good choice to emphasize “free as in speech”.
IIRC the LibreOffice fork happened years before the public had any awareness of OpenAI (and when OpenAI was, in fact, publishing open models).
