    I’m not mad about the downvotes or anything, but I’m astonished that everyone misreads my comment like that. Man, Internet discourse has really shifted.

      Or maybe you wrote a comment that doesn’t convey what you intended

        Instead of saying something like “I’ve been thinking about making some changes, I’m gonna finally check things out, fingers crossed”, the person in the screenshot went out of their way to emphasize how limited and broken LibreOffice / Linux supposedly is.

        As an experienced user of both I think that’s utterly ridiculous, so what I was going for in my post was an absurd exaggeration of that sentiment. It’s not the greatest post or anything, but I don’t think the text is super ambiguous either. I guess can kind of see how people mistook my post for one that’s shitting on FOSS (especially with a negative vote count already next to it), and it’s really not the end of the world, but I’m also rolling my eyes at how superficial of a reading that presupposes.

        There, you asked.

          I think it veget it now. If the user has so many issues with libreoffice, they should switch to something else. I agree.

          Reading was not superficial. You didn’t convey that message
