Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I want to make this happen. Last block for me is editing documents on my iPhone. I haven’t found a LibreOffice-compatible mobile suite that is solid yet. Latest try was Collabra Office but the navigation within-document just seems buggy and weirdly idiosyncratic. Am i missing something there or can anyone recommend an alternative?

    That one is on Apple, not on Linux. Their insistence on charging an arm and a leg just to distribute a binary to users and locking down the best open source alternatives forbidding users from installing apps in the device they paid for. Android has a plethora of open source and free office suites available, some better than others, but development isn't stifled, yet. Google is doing their share in fucking up the space by locking up "sideloading".
