openoffice VS nomacs-plugins

I've found looking at commit counts is never very good for judging project activity, at least if they don't squash-merge all pulls. For example there can be pages of one liners

https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commits/trunk/?after=c8...

One pull as opposed to zero indeed may break the inactive barrier but probably good not to read too much into commit counts graphs.

Better isn't just one dimension but I've repeatedly heard that OO is a damn dumpster fire for loading untrusted content: https://www.openoffice.org/security/bulletin.html vs https://www.libreoffice.org/about-us/security/advisories/

Them both being written in a memory unsafe language[1][2] isn't helping matters

Also, while digging up those links I noticed the last release of OO was in Dec 2023 which is a lot of time for all the components they bundle to acquire vulns. But at least they're consistent about it since the release before that was in Feb 2023

2: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/basic/sou...

Another prominent example is LibreOffice, which was forked from OpenOffice after Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems. Fearing that the stewardship of OpenOffice might suffer under Oracle, the community forked the project to create LibreOffice, which has since become the more popular and actively developed office suite.

Try LibreOffice or OpenOffice .

From that link:

I'm guessing is not "learning" but more of an attempt to game GitHub (e.g. rack up a lot of commits to an impressive-sounding project).

This is Open Office.

OpenOffice is still around. I've had better luck with OpenOffice than with LibreOffice.

OpenOffice is a bit outdated and it's updates don't really update anything if you check the git commits. There is however FreeOffice and OpenOffice, both really good options that look almost the same as MS Office

For Linux users looking for something similar to IrfanView, nomacs is the closest I found to IrfanView since I moved away from Windows:

https://nomacs.org/

how that cmyk profile is shown depends on the image viewing app too and if it [the app] can show that colour profile. have you tried opening the image in a webbrowser, if it's updated and your monitor has the specs for it, try drag&drop the image to an open browser tab. as for img viewing app you can try nomacs.

Maybe Nomacs https://nomacs.org/

I used nomacs. I use it because it's open source.

Nomacs?

have this: https://nomacs.org/ and good luck
