       @libreoffice Unfortunately, all too common. Fell for the OneNote trap and exported everything before I left the thing that allowed me to use OneNote actively... now I'm stuck using some other software on my Mac to use the OneNotes I exported. It is better than OneNote to a degree though.

       @libreoffice Documents are just a legacy hangover from the paper world people transferred 1:1 to PCs. We only still have them because Microsoft needs to keep their monopoly going and lock people in.These days we should be using something more fitting with the internet age of instant collaboration. Where individual pieces of information are accessible in a direct snd structured way. Not manually open a monolithic, closed PDF containing a whole bunch of stuff lumped together, you need to manually read through. Or other information spread across proprietary silos or incompatible apps, each with a different UI to learn, and a different structure tree.It's a junk digital landscape that could be solved with a single open standard.Office software must die.
