Micro***t Word on Linux and alternatives

GregorTacTac@lemm.ee to Linux@lemmy.ml – 2 points –

Are there good Microsoft word alternatives that support Linux (I don't mind closed source)? Libreoffice is meh and only office is quite good, but are there any better ones? Also, is there a way to install word on Linux using wine? When I do that my laptop just overheats and loses internet connection.

What does Microsoft Word give you that OpenOffice Writer or LibreOffice Writer don't?

My writing instructor always tells us to use the grammar checking in Word and there's the occasional formatting or compatibility issue. Nothing that I haven't been able to get through but it has resulted in a couple marks every here and there

I use language tool for that in libre. Works great!
