Possibly you are one of those people who feels that the world owes them a living, and that if you don’t feel like working then other people must make sure that you have food to eat. I won’t say a user “like you”, because most users of this fully functional, professional level software that is provided free, with no obligations, are not so hypercritical of the developers who are offering assistance with no return expected. I know plenty of power users also and not one of them would care about the occasional glitch in display, as long as it doesn’t corrupt the file data or mess up the printing appearance.Įveryone here answering your question is just a user. In my experience, the vast majority of users of LO and MS Office are so basic and simple in their requirements that they just want something to write words on a page that they can print, and to put words in a grid when they want to. In actual fact, it is not that big of an issue for me, or for anyone else I know. I am familiar with the issue you refer to on the screen display. Many of the features already present are needed by very few people. Most people who use MS Office or LibreOffice need very few of the features available. People have been successfully using them all that time. ![]() That they “spend time adding new features that very few people actually need.”įirst I’ll address premise 2. That “the developers don’t fix the most basic and annoying bugs in LO.” 2. If it makes you feel special, you should know that even without any experience in coding at all, you can get a starting pay exactly as high as the very best, most expert programmers get for their work in developing LibreOffice. Pick up a book on programming and dive in. Not only are you free to use it or not use it, you are even free to work to improve it. You can go on using MS Office forever and no one who programs LibreOffice will lose any fraction of a cent because of it. No one is getting paid because you use LibreOffice. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to use it. ![]() They program LibreOffice because they want to. But leaving that aside for a moment, there is a very simple answer (if your premises were true): because they want to. The exact question you asked is, “Why the developers don’t fix the most basic and annoying bugs in LO instead of spending time adding new features very few people actually need?”įirstly, I believe your premise is false. (Bump: Since tere was a recent comment on the question which I answered by another comment, I wantede to get the question on top again for a while.) So I’m asking a question: Why the developers don’t fix the most basic and annoying bugs in LO instead of spending time adding new features very few people actually need? I believe the screen render engine is probably very old and noone touched it for a very long time. I’ve tested this on many computers over the years (Windows based). If you do a lot of drag-drop selection or fast scrolling the text always gets distorted, the fonts get weird, the spacing is broken, some lines are crossed with white lines or spots, they are doubled, text is missing… is so bad that it makes it unusuable. The worst one is actually the one thing a text editor should do best in the first place - show you the text! Not because LO lacks any features but because the most basic and annoying bugs are never fixed. With each new version I’m hoping to find a product worth replacing MS Office but no luck. I’ve been following OpenOffice and then later LibreOffice for a decade now.
