  1. There is no replacement that has exactly the same features, because that would be identical software
  2. There is no software that is bug/issue free

There are replacements that can do the same tasks and offer advantages over Microsoft Office (LibreOffice, Nextcloud Office, Collabora Office, Softmaker Office). Their main issue is that they aren't what everyone uses.
The other issue is that Microsoft Office itself respects neither the open document standard, nor their own published standard for the .docx format, so it's literally impossible for anyone outside Microsoft to make a 100% compatible program.

Unfortunately, the Fediverse shows you everything by default rather than things that you more or less want to

Uh no, that's a good thing.

I'm forced to use Win 11 at work, for sEcUrItY.
But I'm actually working within a full-screen Debian VM on HyperV until someone with authority tells me to knock it off.

It would wilt cause I wouldn't start eating it.
And this is about starting for me.

Vegetables first means I'm going to sit here and watch them wilt.
Dessert first means I'm actually doing the hardest part by far โ€“ which is to start.

The English equivalent is "When you're going through hell, keep going."

My mantras are:
Just do it. ๐Ÿ—ธ = stop overanalyzing, start with whatever action you can do right now
Always eat your dessert first. = start with the most enjoyable or easiest part of the task
Be someone else. = pretend it's not you facing the tough situation but someone else who asked you to get them out of it

Environmentalists don't like it when you bury too many sharks.

You don't know what your ISP-provided router does exactly. It may let some traffic through from the outside. It may get an over-the-air firmware update or config change at any time from your ISP. It definitely has well-known, unfixed vulnerabilities.

Also, if you rely on NAT, you have to have 100% trust in all devices that are inside your network.
