I'm using OneDriver
Do not install from Ubuntu Universe packages. They are out-of-date, obsolete and are unsupported. Install via the OpenSuSE Build Service as per https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/ubuntu-package-install.md
If you have multi-button mouse, I recommend Piper or input-remapper. Again, I have had issues using them on Wayland, but they are otherwise pretty good softwares. There is also RazerGenie / RazerCommander if you use their stuff.
Make sure to install Flatpak. You can generally trust everything on Flathub and Snapcraft, though I recommend Flathub as they have better compatibility for desktop apps vs snapcraft which is better for server stuff.

For Notes, I prefer Joplin, it's practically a drop-in replacement for OneNote and surprisingly faster and more feature-rich too, but if you prefer something simpler then I think Notejot and Standard Notes is pretty good too.

For office stuff, I recommend using WPS Office and OnlyOffice. OnlyOffice has less bugs, though it has less functions and compatibility with Office. As a last resort, you can install Office 365 via CrossOver if you really need it.

Lastly, if you need to access Windows VM, I recommend using QuickGUI. It'll setup everything for you quick and easy. If you need seamless integration and want to access your Ubuntu files from a Windows VM, refer to WinApps instead.
