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.

I'm a heavy user of spreadsheets and in my experience OnlyOffice is inadequate in features, it's slow, sluggish, and crashes whenever you try to open anything big. I'm surprised it gets so much attention and I can only assume it's used by people who don't do any really heavy-duty work with it. LibreOffice is full-featured and is what I've been using for years, I'm very happy with it.
